Then, with only 45 seconds to play, the score 9-to-7 and the ball on the 16-yard line, Coach Ray Flaherty, realizing that a field goal was the Redskins' only hope, sent in Beau Russell to placekick.

Its battered shacks, pieced together out of tar paper and packing cases, nestle close to glittering mountains of "chat," or quartz dust, the "offal of the mines."On blustery days, wind whips and swirls the stinging quartz dust through the streets and into the houses.
