✦ Synopsis

In a recent paper L. F. Henderson suggested that the movement of people in a crowd represented an analogous system to that of a collectionof gasmolecules. Specifically he suggested that the classical Maxwell-Boltzman theory of the molecular system might also describe the distribution of velocities found in the movement of people. Henderson's empirical results produced good agreement with such a theory except for deviations near the modes of the velocity distributions. These he attributed to sexual inhomogeneity in the sampled population but was unable to test this.
