(UPI Telepholo) Average Americans Two Inches Taller Than 60 Years Ago Washington - lUPII - Young men and women in the United States now average about two inches taller than those of 60 years ago, according to an agriculture department re port. They also are ncavicr. Men now average 69 'i inches tall and women 64 Vi inches. Before the turn of the rinturv average heights were 67 '4 inches for men and 62 inches for women. The report contains results nf several studies of heights and weights of U.S. adults during the last 100 years. They include results of a na tionwide study in 1950 of 160,000 college freshmen, made by the American Col lege Health association: heights and weights of 9,000 families interviewed in the department's 1955 nationwide food consumption survey, and yearly records of college freshmen at Smith, Vassar, Amherst, and Yale dating back to 1860. Combination of Factors Department scientists be lieve the changes are due to a combination of many fac tors. These Include advances in medical care and sanita tion, improved knowledge of nutrition and the abundance of food, and the steady im nrnvement in the economic condition of most of the peo ple Comparisons of college wo men wltn tneir moiners ana mlleee men with their fathers show that the younger genera tion In recent years has av eraged about an inch taller than the older group. Sons uioiBhpd from 5 to 10 pounds more than their fathers, and PROMOTED Robert E. Porter, son of Mrs. Mary V. Porter, 826 West 12th st., Medford, recent ly was promoted to specialist four in the U.S. Army while a member of the Fourth Arm ored Division in Erlangen, Germany His wife, Mary, lives in Eagle Point.

Choice Klamath Fed Beef X 09 Properly Aaed-Corefully Trimmed Armour's Banner Sliced BACON EC iC daughters averaged 2 to 5 pounds heavier than their mothers. Heights of college men and women seem to average slight ly more than the general av erage. Average weight of college women has risen from 118 to 127 pounds, an increase of 4 pounds per inch of added height. The men's average weight has increased from 135 to about 157 pounds, rep resenting a gain of about 7 pounds per inch of added height. In 1883, only about 4 per centlof the young men enter ing Amherst and Yale stood 6 feet or more. By 1915, the percentage had risen to 10 per cent. In 1958 and 1957, more than 30 per cent of the freshmen classes at both schools measured at least 6 feet. Linked To Education The survey In 1955 Indi cated that men and women with some college training were taller and lighter than those with only elementary education. The same survey indicated that younger home- makers with more formal education provided the most nutritious diets. " ' Immigration apparently has had considerable effect on the average height of people In the United States at different periods. U. S. soldiers in World War I (1917-1919) were somewhat shorter than sol diers of the Civil War in the 1860s. Prior to 1860, the larg est proportion of immigrants to the United States were Ger man and Irish, who were rela tively tall. After 1880 there was.- sharp increase in the proportion of Italian and Rus sian immigrants, who on the average, were considerably shorter. lb. lb.
