WEIGHT-HEIGHT-AGE TABLES FOR GIRLS AND BOYS OF SCHOOL AGE The tables on pages 598 and 599 were compiled by Dr. Bird T. Baldwin and Dr. Thomas D. Wood. They are reprinted here through the courtesy of the American Child Health Association. The starred numbers are the estimated weights of children who are taller or shorter than the groups of children observed in this study.
