One Of Munro's biggest thrills
was the late Principal Charles
Hart's remembrance of him in
his book. Jim says Mr.. Hart
welded a great influence on
him, an influence he gratefully
remembers today.
Munro did a lot of coaching
after leaving high school, and his
1947 Marx Jewellers baseball team
won the national Junior cham

that was the first team from the
District ever to win a national

It marked the third piece of busi-

the close of the 1948 season. Earlier
the Cubs gave Philadelphia Out
fielder Bill Nicholson and Pitcher
Russ Meyer The Phils sent Out

Dodgers. He batted 1886 last season
and drove in A runs in 1876 games.
He is fine defensive player. Bo-
