SAID TO GO TOGETHER In Norway, as in many other Western countries, youngsters seem to be growing taller. And in Norway, according to a recent report, the intelligence quotient tends to be higher in taller children. In general, the Norwegian restudy port, based on a long-terof thousands of Army recruits, shows height varies inversely with family size, with the tallest people coming from families with two children. Height was also found to vary according to living conditions, social status, and residence.
