photo:  house in Markham Park Terrace

Frank Derrick, a resident of Park Terrace, says:

I'm a postman. I make about $4,000 a year. My wife, Geraldene, and I moved here from the South Side. We've got a brick ranch with three bedrooms, two TV sets, an air conditioner, a piano, a 1953 Chrysler, and the best lawn on the block. A lot of Negroes never think too much about their lawns in the city, but when they come out here they really put all of themselves into their homes.
