Moline High School Class of 1944 - Esther Soderstrom

We are attending a graduation party next weekend for the daughter of my husband's cousin. It's that time of year. Here is a view of another cousins graduation long long ago.

Here is a close-up. Pretty cute but I have just one question. Who is "Baldy"?

October 10, 2020    UPDATE!!!  Esther's younger sister has identified "Baldy" as a boy who lived across the street from the Soderstrom family. "Baldy" was actually Leroy John Skantz, a  good looking basketball player for Moline High School, class of '43, who served in the Navy during WWII.
