Abstract: Let $G$ be a finite non-solvable group with a primitive irreducible character $chi$ that vanishes on one conjugacy class. We show that $G$ has a homomorphic image that is either almost simple or a Frobenius group. We also classify such groups $G$ with a composition factor isomorphic to a sporadic group, an alternating group $m{A}_n$, $ngeq5$ or $m{PSL}_2(q)$, where $qgeq4$ is a prime power, when $chi$ is faithful. Our results partially answer a question of Dixon and Rahnamai Barghi.
