EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in 1909, captures the high spirits of Kings College students as they prepare to embark on a journey to Wormwood Scrubs for a football match. The image is filled with excitement and anticipation as two buses, topped with posters advertising the upcoming sporting event, are about to leave the Strand campus. The crowd of students, dressed in their college colors, are seen in various stages of readiness, some waving banners, others chatting animatedly, and a few even posing for the camera. The buses, an essential mode of transport for the students in those days, are a testament to the advancements in higher education and the importance of extracurricular activities. The destination board on the bus reads "Wormwood Scrubs," an open space in west London, not the prison, where the match is to be held. The students' faces are etched with joy and eagerness, reflecting the fun and camaraderie that comes with college sports. The photograph also offers a glimpse into the historical context of the time, with the students wearing high collars and hats, and the buses adorned with intricate designs. The poster on the bus window, featuring a hare, adds to the overall sense of excitement and anticipation. This image is a reminder of the rich history of education and student life at Kings College and the importance of sports in fostering a sense of community and spirit among students.
