Jefferson natives Rich Stream (left) and Tim Donovan are walking across Iowa along the historic Lincoln Highway, an expedition of nearly 400 miles. They passed through their hometown last week and posed next to one of the surviving concrete markers placed along the entire Lincoln Highway by Boy Scout troops nationwide in 1928.

This is likely a photo of the Churdan Cardinals, the town’s semipro baseball team of the 1930s. In two games in the summer of ’35 against future major league ace Bob Feller, 25 Churdan batters went down swinging, leading the team to apparently make Feller an offer he couldn’t refuse. If you can’t beat ’em, hire ’em. What nobody knew was that Feller was already signed, in secret, to the Cleveland Indians.

Now pitching for Churdan: Bob Feller?

I’m just trying to stay alive from one day to the next,” says Daniel Nash, 60, a Jefferson native whose life was altered by what he describes as unrelenting sex abuse as a child at St. Joseph Catholic Church. While some parishioners still refuse to believe him, he’s found an advocate in Father Bill Brunner, a fellow Jefferson native and a critic of the Sioux City Diocese. CONTRIBUTED PHOTO
