Correcting some “proofs” given in an earlier paper of the same title, we prove here, among other things, that, if S is a subgroup of a topological group that is complete in a left invariant metric or locally compact, then every weakly almost periodic function on S is (left and right) uniformly continuous. We also prove a theorem related to results of R. B. Burckel and of W. W. Comfort and K. A. Ross: a topological group is pseudocompact if and only if WAP(G) = C(G).
