A strange football

The high school of Kirkkonummi was built between the church and the railway station after the Soviet lease period. One day, as some boys were playing football on the yard, a man walked by and stopped, because he could not believe what he was seeing. He took the ball and brought it to the principal’s office.

- It all felt very strange, says Kaija Kangasniemi, who was principal in the school at the time.

The “ball” was a scull from the nearby graveyard, which the Soviets had dug up.
