Biography
James Auchterlonie Munro (20 May 1905 – 1978) was a Scottish professional footballer who played as a forward.
Career
Born in Glasgow, Munro developed a reputation as a prolific goalscorer while playing for St Johnstone. During his time with the club, he was selected in a Scottish Football Association XI that travelled to Canada in 1927. In February 1929, he signed for Cardiff City as a replacement for Hughie Ferguson but was unable to replicate his form in the Football League.
