96 FAMILY STUDIES IN BUILD. 



3. Male, 180/66.5 inches; build 2.9 (41). 



4. Male, 150/68 inches; build 2.3 (32). 



5. Male, 155/65 inches; build 2.6 (37). 



6. Female, 175/66 inches; build 2.8 (40). 



Comment.— A fleshy man, whose known family is fleshy or medium, has 

 by a very slender woman whose family shows a variety of builds, 6 chil- 

 dren: 1 medium, 4 fleshy, and 1 very fleshy. This suggests that the Father 

 is nearly homozygous for the factors of build (S : Olm-A).
