George Munroe

George Barber Munroe (January 5, 1922 – August 19, 2014) was an American professional basketball player, Navy veteran, Rhodes scholar, lawyer, and former CEO of Phelps Dodge Corporation.

College

Munroe matriculated at Dartmouth College in the fall of 1939. He played on the Big Green basketball team from 1940–41 to 1942–43, where as junior he was honored as a consensus Second Team All-American. A 5 ft 11 in (1.80 m), 170 lb (77 kg) guard, Munroe guided Dartmouth to the NCAA national title game—the school's first championship appearance—but lost to Stanford, 53–38. They finished the season with a 22–6 overall record, largely led by Munroe, who was the 1941–42 Eastern Intercollegiate Basketball League (Ivy League) scoring champion. In 12 conference games he scored 175 points, good for an average of 14.6 points per game. As a senior in 1942–43, Dartmouth once again reached the NCAA Tournament, but this time lost in the opening round to DePaul, 46–36. They would defeat NYU 51–49 in the East Region consolation game, however, and finish their season with a 20–3 overall record. In the spring of 1943, Munroe graduated from Dartmouth College.

There was an independent candidate named Edward G. Price in Winnipeg—Birds Hill in the 1984 federal election. He was a business owner, and ran several advertisements in the Winnipeg Free Press, indicating his support for capital punishment, and his opposition to abortion, political patronage and deficit spending. He received 549 votes (1.05%), finishing sixth against New Democratic Party incumbent Bill Blaikie. It is not clear if this was the same person.
