Abstract
At the beginning of the war, the London County Counoil issued a report by Sir Frederick Menzies, their late School Medical Officer, on the average heights and weights of London elementary school children in 1938. The report is based on the measurements of about 100,000 children, and is probably the most important contribution to the anthropometry of childhood that has appeared in this country for many years.Keywords
