Takagi's model and Heisenberg's model (modified with regard to the total cross section) for multiple meson production are examined, and they are found to conform to two sources of eaperimenral information on the properties of secondary particles in jet showers : their composition and the distri bution of their transverse momenta. The main aspects of these models, as well as .those of the Landau model, are discussed.
