The purpose of this paper is to extend results of Ball [1] concerning maximal subgroups of the group S(X) of all permutations of the infinite set X. The basic idea is to consider S(X) as a group of operators on objects more complicated than X. The objects we consider here are subspaces of the Stone-Čech compactification of the discrete space X and the Boolean algebra of “big setoids” of X.
