The principal theorem to be proved in this part is: Theorem II. If in IIn a normal rational curve, ρ, and a quadric primal S are such that there is a proper simplex inscribed in ρ and self-polar with regard to S, then there exist sets of N, = (2n+1/2), chords of р every two of which are conjugate with regard to S. A set can be constructed to contain any pair of chords of р which are conjugate with regard to S.
