Gymnasium and high school students were typically between 14 and 20 years old. A gymnasium student in September 1941 was likely born between 1921 and 1927.
The gymnasium and high school for boys was located on Otylii. The street name was changed to Ottilienstrasse when German occupation began in 1939. See www.lodz-ghetto.com for a map of Otylii and the rest of the Lodz ghetto.

This inhabitant was male and fit the age range for H. Goldman. The last name of Goldman fit the signature as well as the H in Henryk. It is important to note AUSG TR 38.
Approver Comments:
Good work! I agree this is the most likely candidate to have signed this name in the album, for all the reasons you suggest. Thank you as well for noting the deportation number--keep an eye out for it, and any more information about his deportation, in the next stage.
