Abstract: We restrict our discussion to the orientable category. For $g>1$, let $O{E}_g$ be the maximum order of a finite group $G$ acting on the closed surface $Sigm{a}_g$ of genus $g$ which extends over $(S^3,Sigm{a}_g)$, where the maximum is taken over all possible embeddings $Sigm{a}_{g}hookrightarrow{S}^3$. We will determine $O{E}_g$ for each $g$, indeed the action realizing $O{E}_g$. In particular, with 23 exceptions, $O{E}_g$ is $4(g+1)$ if $ge{k}^2$ or $4(sqrtg+1{)}^2$ if $g=k^2$, and moreover $O{E}_g$ can be realized by unknotted embeddings for all $g$ except for $g=21$ and $481$.
