800 singly born normal newborn infants were studied for their anthropometry. All the physical measurements tended to be lower than those for their Western counterparts. Out of 651 infants born after 37 weeks of gestation, 25.34 per cent weighed 2500 G. or less; 18.12 per cent had a crown heel length less than 47 cm.; 91.24 per cent had a crown rump length less than 32 cm., 14.44 per cent had a head circumference less than 33 cm. and 12.3 per cent had a chest circumference less than 30 cm.
