Patrons unseated at village bakery
By Greg Holliman
The typical merchant welcomes standing-foom-qmly qrowds.
But GarsoH Constable of Sewicftley’s Ultimate ’ Pastry Shop doesn't like to people stdndifig.
So he intfoduced tate and chaira at his Beaver' Street fekefy; Gustomers, were happy,
But officials at Aliegheny" ■ BepaPtsiteafc Heal& weren’t happy- The furniture was ordered he removed. ,
The reason? New facilities, or ones that undergo extensive rentivatioH, ar6 required to havfe two restrooms, according to the csoHiits^’s Fcoii Protectioii Code.'
' Constable’s has only one, wayin ttie- back,, bsliiad . the^ cookifig operations, ,
,“We’re flot.fjolicing sitting or standiing,” says Guillermci Cole, infoniaationi .specialist with the
Health Department. Cole means • what he says. Patrons are permitted to stand as they gobble theu- sweet tiungs. Indeed, they may, if they choose; sit on the . floor
“The critical factor is -seat^g,” Cole explaii^. “When peo^e sit, they tend to, stay longer.*” , ;
In vain Conslable has crabbed to the H^th :Departittefiit. As, : things;, staiid: ‘ no%,, it,^s , a ,'sfeuidstill.	,
'' Howevers '' the - baker :hasE’t given ujp tlie'fight. ,He:says he’s :^poUed some „of his' clientele: - : lliey can, ,live :with the" .one, bathroom.
One of his strategies is to . sublet, the former dioing area to ' people who sellfurnitufe. Me’has ' somteone in ffiiHfr already: iJie ^ ,outfit where he got Uie furniture.,
Constable a»d co-owner Nor? reen Prokopovich look forward to seeing baked-goods fans once again lounging at their ease wi&
scone in hand.-Two other Sewickley eateries
■	are in compliance with the stan-, ding (sitting?) order. Sewickley Sweet Shoppe on Wahiut Street has rooms for both ladies and gejats. '.,
The New Deli came to town after , the 1974 legislation .• However; because it took over from' fealy’s, the Beaver Street operation was considered . '‘grandfathered.” ' ■ „
Although she isn't.repred to . Ddl'-owneF 'Florence Ghirumbolo says vshe . lets customers . who ask clamber downstairs to use'the bathroom..
, ■ Mrs.-Ghirumbolo would like to-have public r^trooms, but the intricaci^ of HMth 'Depart-
■	inent'regulations-'make--the-op--~ tion difficult. A partition at the top of the basement steps would be required — right in front of one of the deli’s two large picture v/indows.
In Tuesday's election
Only contest is in Leetsdale
Except for lisetsdale Democrats, Quaker Valley voters going to the polls Tuesday won’t find any competition in primary races for Congress, state Senate and General Assembly.
However, the contest for the 22nd Congressional District — which includes Leetsdale - pits
■	long-time incumbent Austin Murphy against Democrat challenger William NicOleHa.
The contest, already heated by Nicolella’s reminders of a Con- : gressional reprimand of Murphy in 1987, grew hotter Monday with . another attack by Nicolella on
■	his opponent.
In an Associated Press report, Nicolella-accused Murphy of leading a dual personal life, and promised to release a videotape that proves it. Nicolella alleges that in addition to his official residence' in Mionongahela,
and children, the congressman also maintains a residence in Virginia with his legal secretary and their son. .
While the story said Murphy-, acknowledges the child, Murphy blasted Nicolella for “insinuations and insults.”
In declaring' his candidacy, Nicolella, 40, a native and resident of Washington, Pa., said he was running f or Congress to provide “a clear and credible alternative to Murphy’s declining ser" vice and ineffectiveness.
“My campaign will focus on values and sharply contrast my character with the moral and ethical indiscretion^. of Austin . Mu^hy. I intend bo highlight Murpby’s record and conduct, which will show why 324
members of Congress voted to reprimand Murphy . ”
Congress sanctioned Murphy in 1987 for allegedly ■ allowing ghost voting on his behalf, chan-
to his iormer la%v Urm, tev ing a nO-show employee on' the House payroll.
In announcing his candidacy, Murphy, seeking an eighth term, stressed “plans, .not proEiSss*’ and listed several “initiatives” he intends tp address, including completion of highway in Fayette County, monitoring of development at a Greene County dam, and involvement and funding for the American Industrial Heritage Project, which is overseeing preservation of historic sites in the district.
Miu-phy serves on both the House Interior and Insular Affairs, and Education and Labor committees. As chairman of the Sub-Comihittee on Labor Stan*
