London schoolboys leave for Russia. To meet Finnish boys in football match.
The first party of British schoolboys to visit the USSR, twenty boys from from the Barnsbury Central School, Islington, left Kings Cross Station, London, on their way to Russia.
They are to visit Copenhagen and Helsingfora, where they will meet a team of Finnish boys who have taken the name Arsenal in a football match. The London schoolboys are taking a football autographed by every member of the Arsenal team, and at the end of the match the British Minister in Finland will present the ball to the Finnish boys.
Photo shows, the party of schoolboys carrying the autographed football, on the front of the engine at Kings Cross, before departure.
