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.

I believe it's Henryk Goldman, and what led me to that con,clusion is that he within the age rank. Plus, he is also a male who went to high school for boys.
Approver Comments:
Great work. I agree that this is the student who most likely signed this name in the album, for the reasons you suggest. While we're generally looking for students born between 1921 and 1927, a student with a very similar name born in 1928 is not too far out of the question. Please remember to enter the other address listed in his record as well.
