In the proof of Theorem 2.6 [1] on page 270, Claim (1) should read “G has a unique minimal normal subgroup N and P N G. Moreover, if N is nonabelian, then CG (N ) = 1.” The last line in the proof of Claim (1) should be replaced by “Therefore, G has a unique minimal normal subgroup N . Assume that N is nonabelian. Since CG (N ) is a normal subgroup of G and does not contain N , N ∩ CG (N ) = 1. Now CG (N ) = 1

as otherwise CG (N ) would possess a minimal normal subgroup of G which is different from N .” The last line in page 270 should be “Since Op (G) = 1, we must have CP (N ) = 1.” On page 274, Claim (1) should read “G has a unique minimal normal subgroup N and P N G. Moreover, if N is nonabelian, then CG (N ) = 1.” The last line in the proof of Claim (1) should be replaced by “It follows that CG (N ) = 1 if N is nonabelian.” The last two labellings on page 274 and 275 should be “(3) N is a p -group.” and “(4) N∼ = S k for some integer k ≥ 1 . . . ” References [1] H.P.
