This is a list of teachers and students of a Daugavpils school or may be of several schools, who crossed the Lithuanian-Latvian border on October 25, 1936. The list was prepared for the group of 203 persons to allow them to cross the border collectively. It is quite possible that in this list mainly the students of the 1^st Daugavpils gymnasium are listed, because its director at that time was Kārlis Dāvis, and he was the first person on the list, though I copied the list here in the alphabetic order. Kārlis Samtiņš is also mentioned in the list, and he was the director of a vocational school in Daugavpils, which supports the idea that several schools organized the crossing of the border.

In fact I do not know why the group went to Lithuania for so short time - they were to return in 48 hours, and in fact returned the next day October 26. The most likely hypothesis is that they went to an excursion, but it is a huge group for an ordinary excursion. A.Skuja, with whom I discussed the problem, supposed that at that time in Lithuania a Song Festival took place but one day is very short time for the participation in the Festival too, and October is rather bad time for a festival.

At the beginning of the list it is explained both in Latvian and in Lithuanian what is this list about. The marks of the border guards are at the end of the list (see below)
