Crown to heel, crown to rump, weight, gead circumference of normal newborns (m=792) were measured in a hospital in Hamadan, Iran during two months, in spring, 1995. The mean C.H. for males was 48.2 cm. and for females 47.5 cm. ; the mean C.R. for males was 33.3 cm and for females 32.73 cm.; the mean...
