Abstract: Let G be a finite group with , A a standard component of G and X the normal closure of A in G. Furthermore, assume that has cyclic Sylow 2-subgroups. Then conditions are given on A which imply that either or has Sylow 2-subgroups of order 2. These results are then applied to the cases where A is isomorphic to $\cdot 0$ or Ru, proper 2-fold covering of the Rudvalis group.
