A method of construction of designs with parameters v1 = r2 = p2, r1 = v2 = p + 1, b = p(p+1), k = p which may be used for the two-way elimination of heterogeneity is discussed. These designs were first studied in connection with estimating tobacco mosaic virus. Our designs have the advantage that every treatment occurs at most once in a row or column. We give the designs explicitly for p = 3, 4, 5.
