Timeline

1908

Henry John "Zeke" Bonura (September 20, 1908 – March 9, 1987) was an American first baseman in Major League Baseball.

1925

In June 1925, at the age of sixteen, Bonura became the youngest male athlete ever to win an event at the National (AAU) Track and Field Championships.

He threw the javelin 65.18 meters (213-10) to claim the title.

1930

Bonura's winning effort was a meet record by nearly twenty-feet; a prodigious mark that remained on the books until 1930.

1934

From 1934 through 1940, he played for the Chicago White Sox (1934–1937), Washington Senators (1938, 1940), New York Giants (1939) and Chicago Cubs (1940).

Bonura batted and threw right-handed.

He was born in New Orleans.

In a seven-season career, Bonura posted a .307 batting average (1099-for-3582) with 119 home runs and 704 RBI in 917 games played.

Defensively, he was a good first baseman, recording a career .992 fielding percentage.

One of Bonura's more noteworthy athletic accomplishments has nothing to do with the sport of baseball.

1941

in 1941, Bonura joined the army and was stationed at Camp Shelby, Mississippi.

With the outbreak of World War II, he was recalled to active duty, and returned to Camp Shelby where he was in charge of organizing baseball.

1943

In mid 1943, he was posted to Oran, Algeria.

He organized large-scale baseball operations, consisting of 150 teams in 6 leagues.

Playoffs among the teams narrowed them to two finalists – the Casablanca Yankees, consisting of medics, and the Algiers Streetwalkers, consisting of MPs.

The North African World Series was a best two-out-of-three-game championship played on October 3 and 4, 1943, at Eugene Stadium in Algiers, Algeria, between the two teams.

The Casablanca Yankees won the series in two straight games.

The winners were presented with baseballs autographed by General Eisenhower, and the winning team received a trophy made from an unexploded Italian bomb.

He received the Legion of Merit medal while serving in the US Army during World War II, for his work as athletic director for the Army in Algeria in 1943 in 1944.

Bonura did not play baseball at Loyola New Orleans because the university did not field a team.

Instead he lettered in basketball, football, and track and field.

1945

In mid 1945, Bonura was discharged from the army with the rank of master sergeant.
