Description: Everything denotes "Panthers" in Chassell these days, even this smelting party lunch stand by the Pike River which reveals the initiative of its operator, Frank Wuotila. Frank, with his corps of helpers, here dispenses hot dogs, coffee, sweets and a variety of other aids to an evening of smelt seeking. Here a group sings the smelt song dedicated to tonight's smelt jamboree in Panthertown. [A group gathers around a tent-like structure. Several members of the group wear plaid attire.]
