Let G be a compact Lie group, and M a homology n-sphere with a smooth action \(\psi\) of G. Let \(\phi\) be a linear action of G on the standard n- sphere. If \(\psi\) and \(\phi\) have the same slice representations of the corresponding orbits, then we say that \(\phi\) is a linear model of \(\psi\). The author proves the following theorem: Let M be a homology sphere, and G be one of the three groups, SO(n) (n\(\neq 2,4)\), SU(n) or Sp(n). Let \(\psi\) be a smooth action of G on M which has a codimension two principal orbit and a linear model. Then \(\psi\) is equivariantly diffeomorphic to the linear model unless it is equivariantly diffeomorphic to some natural action of SO(n) \((n=2m+1\), \(m\geq 2)\) or Sp(2) on some Brieskorn spheres.
