Starters with adders in abelian groups of odd order have been used extensively in the construction and study of Room squares. It is possible to define these concepts in non-abelian groups, with similar applicability to Room squares. Examples are given of adders for the “patterned starter” in the non-abelian groups of order pq, p and q primes larger than 3, p ≡ q ≡ 3 (mod 4), q ≡ 1 (mod p).
