    By Carroll Hall

    Sgt. James Munro, former District sandlot football and baseball star, who recently concluded a tour of duty at Ft. Myer, leaves today for Camp Kilmer, N. J. to await assignment for European command duty.

    Munro, who is starting his 23rd year of Army duty, including National Guard time, has been a leading figure in the promotion of Junior baseball, Junior American Legion ball and softball locally, will be assigned to special services somewhere in Germany.

    The 42-year-old sergeant has been stationed at the near-by Virginia post for the past three and one-half years and has coached baseball there in 1949 and 1950 and was assistant football coach to Capt. Joey Kaufman during the 1950 and 1951 seasons.

    Started at Eastern

    Jim started his athletic career at Eastern high school, participating in football, basketball and baseball. He won all-high honors as a catcher, and as center on the football team during the 1927-28 seasons.

    He later joined the Takoma Tigers, champions in the early thirties and was a teammate of Jake Powell, former major league outfielder. Also in those days he played center for the Mohawks District grid champs.

    Still later, Munro organized a crack junior baseball team and under the sponsorship of Mars Jewelers, brought the first national championship to the District in 1947. Munro's team won the District title the next two seasons and both times his team went to the final at Johnstown, Pa.

    Coached at Central

    Jim also coached baseball at Central from 1943 thru 1945, and was assistant football coach to John Jankowiski at the same time.

    He was chairman of the District Junior American Legion Baseball committee from 1945 thru 1947 at the same time serving as athletic director of the Merrick Boys club.

    He is a member of the D. C. Football Officials association and will retain his membership while overseas. He also is a member of the Touchdown club.
