A result of W. Gaschi7tz for finite soluble groups is extended to two classes of locally finite, locally soluble groups. The concept of Sylowizers has been introduced by W. GaschiYtz [2]. If R is a v-subgroup of the group G, then a 7-Sylowizer of R in G is a subgroup S of G maximal with respect to containing R as a Sylow u-subgroup. [7T denotes a set of primes and a Sylow 7..subgroup is simply a maximal 77subgroup.] A straightforward Zorn's lemma argument shows that uT-Sylowizers of any 77-subgroup R must always exist. Gaschdtz proved the following conjugacy theorem: Let G be a finite soluble group and R a normal subgroup of some Sylow u-subgroup P of G. Then the u-Sylowizers of R in G are conjugate in G. It is our aim in this note to extend this result to the class 3 of periodic locally soluble FC-groups and the class U defined by: G E U if and only if G is locally finite and for each H < G and for each set of primes u7, the Sylow ur-subgroups of H are conjugate in H. [The necessary results about ( and U may be found in [5] and [1] respectively.] The proof for finite groups involves the usual consideration of a counterexample of minimal order. This method cannot be employed for infinite groups and we make a more direct construction of the 77-Sylowizers of R, although this construction is based on the ideas used in Gaschiutz's proof. Although we only prove the extension of the theorem for 7 and U, the construction of the u-Sylowizers is carried out in a much wider class of groups. We define X to be the class of upper u-separable locally finite groups G such that PK/K is a Sylow u7-subgroup of H/K whenever K '1 H < G and P is a Sylow u-subgroup of H. A 4-group is clearly upper u-separable and also its Sylow 77-subgroups have the necessary homomorphism property [5, 4.1 (iii)].
