Abstract: We present two symmetric function operators

H_{3}^{q t}

and

H_{4}^{q t}

that have the property

H_{3}^{q t} H_{(2^{a} 1^{b})} [X; q, t] = H_{(3 2^{a} 1^{b})} [X; q, t]

and

H_{4}^{q t} H_{(2^{a} 1^{b})} [X; q, t] = H_{(4 2^{a} 1^{b})} [X; q, t]

. These operators are generalizations of the analogous operator

H_{2}^{q t}

and also have expressions in terms of Hall-Littlewood vertex operators. We also discuss statistics,

a_{m u} (T)

and

b_{m u} (T)

, on standard tableaux such that the

q, t

Kostka polynomials are given by the sum over standard tableaux of shape

l a

,

K_{l a m u} (q, t) = s u m_{T} t^{a_{m u} (T)} q^{b_{m u} (T)}

for the case when when

m u

is two columns or of the form

(3 2^{a} 1^{b})

or

(4 2^{a} 1^{b})

. This provides proof of the positivity of the

(q, t)

-Kostka coefficients in the previously unknown cases of

K_{l a (3 2^{a} 1^{b})} (q, t)

and

K_{l a (4 2^{a} 1^{b})} (q, t)

. The vertex operator formulas are used to give formulas for generating functions for classes of standard tableaux that generalize the case when

m u

is two columns.
