Ice hockey at Hoodlum Lake near So. 12th St. and So. Puget Sound. Six young boy with sticks in hand, including Franklin Elementary School students Milton and Kenneth Parkhurst, are ready for a game of "shinny," the "grandpappy" of hockey, on the frozen lake. The lake, a favorite hangout for youngsters, served as the old swimmin' hole in the summer, the frog catchin' place in the spring and the ice rink in the winter. The lake was filled in when Franklin Park was developed on the site. (T. Times 1/21/1937, pg. 15)
