the others are of lower grades of build. Accordingly we are appa i 

 justified in concluding thai some of the very fleshy pai i 

 heterozygous in the faciei- f< r build; and, indeed, a- stated, 

 children 12 are of medium build. Table 11 c mtains Blend* i 

 table X\' largely heterozygous ones. The detailed hist< 

 cases follows.

 inches; build 3.2 (45). Hi? mother had the formula L65 66 inches; build 

 2.7 (38). Thus this side of the house has a fleshy or very fleshy build 



The Mother has the formula 220/68 inch«> ; build 3. 1 (48). Her 3 

 brothers, all 6 feet tall or more, each has a build of about 3.'.. lb r 2 tall 

 sisters have builds of 38 and 50 respectively. Her father had the formula 

 190/73 inches; build 2.5 (36). Her mother had the formula 90 62 in 

 build 1.6 (23). Thus this side of the house, aside from the fleshy mother, 

 has prevailingly medium build. The mother's mother was i veil slender.
