The purpose of this paper is to clarify and sharpen the argument in the last two chapters of the author's Representation theory of the symmetric group(3). When these chapters were written the peculiar properties of the case p = 2 were not fully appreciated. No difficulty arises in the definition of the block in terms of the p-core, or in the application of the general modular theory based on the formula
