I think the police are running out of patience with me. “I would like to see an end to all of this, but not at the ex- pense of civil rights and liberties at Harveys Lake. This is ridicu- lous.” The now infamous hot dog vendor became a household name in the Back Mountain af- ter he was forced to stop selling his hot dogs at Harveys Lake Prescott said he was issued a cease and desist order by Har- veys Lake Zoning officer Milton Lutsey last year, for violations in the zoning code, but received a stay on the order, allowing him to continue working. Prescott said the Harveys Lake Borough Council later instruct- ed Lutsey to fine Prescott. $8,000, or $500 a day for the 16 days he continued to sell hot dogs at his location on Lakeside 5. Ruth Eaton “Why aren’t these laws being enforced against anyone else?” “Hot Dog Bob” Prescott Harveys Lake Drive after the Zoning Board re- versed Lutsey’s decision on granting the stay. Several attempts to reach Lut- sey were unsuccessful. Business owners Damien Kaye of Damien's on the Lake, and Kent Jones of Jones’ Potato Pan- cake House, whose properties neighbor the land Prescott cur- rently leases, brought the appeal to the board. According to the hearing min- utes: Prescott objected to council member Ruth Eaton's role on the council and her business ties to Damien's on the Lake, and zoning board member Lynn -Banta’s ability to participate in the meeting because of her in- volvement with Eaton's political campaign and role as attorney for Kaye. : Banta denied the allegations, saying Eaton had no financial interest in the matter, because in order to serve on the borough council she sold all of her shares in the business. But according to the Pennsyl- vania Liquor Control Board, the liquor license for Damien's on the Lake is owned by Kaye- Eaton Enterprises Inc., and a further call to the Department of State Corporation Bureau shows that Eaton has been listed as treasurer for Kaye-Eaton Enter- prises Inc. since 1991. Like borough officials, both Banta and Eaton did not return any calls to The Dallas Post over the course of a week.

They learned how to drive the ball, dribbling and the art of the push-pass from their more expe- rienced coaches. “It's all in how your hands are positioned on the stick,” ex- plained DeCesaris. “A drive, your hands are close together. A push-pass, one hand is at the top of the stick, the other is at the bottom.” DeCesaris, Fine and Edwards have already begun conditioning for their field hockey season un- der the guidance of their coach- es, Jean Lipski and Sandy Boyle. The seniors showed at 8 a.m. for conditioning before meeting the ° younger girls for their 9 a.m. camp. Their practice begins in earnest next week. In August, they will be doing double ses- sions, practicing for two weeks in the morning and afternoon. Dedication to the sport is a given. Summer camp as coaches for the girls ~~ an experience they will keep with them forever. “It's been a lot of fun,” Ed- wards added. “I met new girls and I knew a lot of the girls from last year.” The last day of camp was cele- brated with awards to everyone and ice cream sundaes, a fitting reward for a job well done. The weather cooperated and the rain stayed away, a large blessing this rainy year. “I think the camp went really well,” said Fine as she reflected on the week past. “It went better than we expected I think. The girls had a blast with it. This year they really picked up on stuff a lot better than they have in the past.” It must be the coaching. Megan DeCesaris looks on intently as Kate Williams makes a dash for the ball with Kayla Fine behind her. Lake- Lehman seniors Megan DeCesaris, Meredith Edwards and Jenna Fine coached 53 elementary school girls in a one week summer field hockey camp as their senior project.
