To make clear the diversity of adolescent growth, spline-smoothed individual velocity curves of stature, body weight and chest circumference of 44 girls in Tokyo, of which menarche was recorded correctly, were provided. Additionally, 25 variables of ages at peak velocity, intensities, sizes and weight at the peak and at menarche, and terminal height were obtained. One subject girl lacked a growth spurt of chest circumference, and 12 girls lacked one of the takeoffs, of which 9 had occurred before age 7. On an average, take-off for height occurs at age 8.5, then that for weight at 8.8, for chest circumference at 9.1, height peak at 11.1, weight peak at 11.7, chest circumference peak at 11.8, menarche at 12.3, and terminal height at 14.4 years
