The size spectrum of extensive air showers (EAS) with sizes from 8 x 10 to the 4th to 5 x 10 to the 6th particles is determined based on data collected by a scintillator array at Kobe University, Japan, near sea level. Results show that the lateral distribution of EAS is well expressed by the NKG function of the single age parameter in the range distance from 1-50 m from the core. The average age parameter decreases with increasing shower size and approaches a constant value, while the fluctuation of the age parameters constantly decreases with increasing shower size. In addition, the absorption length is determined to be 117 + or - 8 g/sq cm, and is found to be almost constant in the observed size range. The integral size spectrum of the EAS in the observed size range is found to differ from previous determinations due to variations in the intensity and the spectral shape as well as due to the absence of a kink in the spectrum.
