ROAD. WONDER LAK John Belessis, Hot Dog Vendor To youngsters playing in New York's Washington Square park, John Belessis - or John the Hot Dog man - is friend, counselor, baby sitter and unofficial godfather. For manv. he is the roost important friend they have. When school lets out, John's friends park their bags on his stand, talking and joking with him. In off hours, he takes "his" kids to the movies, the zoo, the circus, and even the opera. He treats them to meals, to bowling, and visits them in their homes. His boss once told him, "John, they could put you down in the middle of the African desert, and in a few minutes you'd have two or three kids standing around you.". It all started, John says, in 1946 when a Mother Superior of a Catholic convent "put a blessing" on him after he had donated his time to repair the convent's sewing machines so the nuns could mend clothing for European war orphans. She predicted, "You'll be very happy with children one day." "I didn't give it much thought at the time," he says. "It wasn't until about fifteen years later, when I went to selling franks and the kids started coming around. Now I'm sure that's the reason for the change in my life." John has cared for children deserted by their parents and put up money to help straighten out family problems. "I try to be a good influence on the kids," he says. "Some of them come back later and thank me for what I've done." Jesus said "Suffer the little children to come to me." People like John Belessis have honored this command in a beautiful way.
