It is known [D. Chillag, A. Mann, C. Scoppola, Availableonline29July2009 Generalized Frobenius groups II, Israel J. Math. 62 (1988) 269–282] Communicated by Martin Liebeck that in this case N is a p-group. Our first result (Theorem 1.3) shows that the solvable residual of G/O (G) is isomorphic either Keywords: p e = Camina pair to SL(2, p ), p is a prime or to SL(2, 5), SL(2, 13) with p 3, or to SL(2, 5) with p 7. Our second result provides an example of a non-solvable and non- 5 ∼ Frobenius Camina pair (G, N) with |Op (G)|=5 and G/Op (G) = SL(2, 5).NotethatG has a character which is zero everywhere except on two conjugacy classes. Groups of this type were studies by S.M. Gagola [S.M. Gagola, Characters vanishing on all but two conjugacy classes, Pacific J.
