    The author describes odd-order semifield planes admitting a Baer involution or an alternating group \(A_{4}\) in the translation complement. Explicit matrix representations of the spreads are given. The results are applied to the order \(81\) case. The reviewer is surprised not to find any references to papers after the year 2000, from outside the authors work group. Certainly relevant would be, e.g., [\textit{U. Dempwolff}, J. Geom. 89, No. 1--2, 1--16 (2008; Zbl 1175.12003)].
