Po-dunk crossword

Is there such a thing as a Po-Dunk crossword puzzle?
I don't think I've sat down and attempted to do a crossword for years, so I was flipping through the "local" C-town newspaper, (which happens to have about 20 pages in all), and had some time on my hands and decided to do the crossword. (I ain't that smart ya'all, but ya knows when it comes to these danged word games, I know a thangy or two)...or I thought I did! First of all, it was a real challenge to come up with words that are three letters or less. THREE LETTERS! Here's one of the hints: 21 across: Twain...3 letters...Anyone? My first thought was Mark (Twain). Nope, that's four letters! Okay, try another: 18 across: Church recess...4 letters...What church are they talking about? Aside from that, this is where I'm starting to feel really dumb. If this is Po-Dunk's idea of a joke, they really got one over on me! Like I said it's been yeeeaaarrrsss since I did a crossword. If any of you smart city folks have answers to those let me know. It's possible my brain has been sucked out by aliens...

Here's a couple more:
43 across: Title...4 letters
49 across: Get...4 letters
20 down: Stated...4 letters
41 down: Send forth...4 letters
Good Luck!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Twain could be cut, as in cut in twain. Church recess could be nave.
