The problem of completing partial latin squares to latin squares of the same order has been studied for many years. For instance, in 1960 Evans [9] conjectured that every partial latin square of order n containing at most n− 1 filled cells is completable to a latin square of order n. This conjecture was shown to be true by Lindner [12] and Smetaniuk [13]. Recently, Bryant and Rodger [6] establi...

Frankl and F uredi established that the largest number of 3-subsets of an n-set for which no four distinct sets A; B; C; D satisfy A B = C D is at most b n(n?1) 3 c. Chee, Colbourn, and Ling established that this upper bound is met, with few exceptions, when n 0; 1 (mod 3). In this paper, it is established that the upper bound is also met with few exceptions when n 2 (mod 3).
