A sample of 845 school-going boys of Vadabalija parentage was studied in a cross-sectional Andiropometrio survey in 1986-87 at Visakhapatnam. Here the data on upper arm circumference and skinfold thickness at triceps have been reported. At all ages between 1 and 20 years their mean values of arm girth and fxt fold at triceps are observed to be lower than those of the Indian school children and Bengali children. The “F” value show the statistical significance levels of regression function as a whole
