  The Brothers Killebrew
  by Diane Killebrew Holt

  While famed Payette native Harmon Killebrew rode a major league career all the way to the National Baseball Hall of Fame, there’s much more to the story. In “Baseball Extra” Killebrew’s niece, Diane Killebrew Holt, writes about the athletic career of her father, Bob Killebrew (Harmon’s older brother), and traces the Killebrew family’s illustrious sports history back to the mid-19th Century.

  Shelley—Spotlight City
  by Lynna Howard

  Although some residents claim it’s too quiet. Shelley can sometimes reply sharply to the contrary. Some events, such as the annual “Idaho Spud Day” provide a clamorous contrast to the sleepy small-town image of Shelley. Take a look at a colorful town ensconced in Idaho’s “Potato Heartland.”

  Vietnam Reflections 
  by David Rauzi

  Good Morning, Vietnam. Idaho’s 116th National Guard Combat Engineer Battalion was involved in the Vietnam War, lending support to the 116th Cavalry Brigade. Several Idaho National Guard veterans of that conflict shared their views with a fellow Guardsman and North Idaho journalist.
