Groups for which the distributively generated near-ring generated by the endomorphisms is in fact a ring are known as E-groups and are discussed in (3). R. Faudree in (1) has given the only published examples of non-abelian E-groups by presenting defining relations for a family of p–groups. However, as shown in (3), Faudree's group does not have the desired property when p = 2.
