Aurora honors life, character of local baseball legend

September 30, 2013

A little more than two months ago, former Aurora resident and 19th-century baseball legend James "Deacon" White was inducted into the National Baseball Hall of Fame. On Sunday, Aurora University and the city of Aurora added to that honor by giving the 200 block of south Calumet Avenue the honorary designation of "James 'Deacon' White Way."
