      In [J. Algebra 63, 413-434 (1980; Zbl 0427.20010)] \textit{R. T. Curtis} proved, that there are precisely five classes of maximal 2-local subgroups in the largest Conway group \(Co_ 1\). He left open the question whether these groups are maximal in \(Co_ 1\). Working in the Leech lattice the author of the paper under review shows, that these 2- local subgroups are maximal in \(Co_ 1\).
