Affine cylinders are characterized as the only hypersurfaces of type number 1 admitting non-flat locally symmetric connections. A class of non-metrizable locally symmetric connections on abstract manifolds is produced. The realization problem for locally symmetric connections of 1-codimensional nullity space is also discussed.
