The finished array is an $ORS$ because it contains one ordered pair corresponding to each unordered pair from the set \begin{equation} \{\infty _1, \infty _2, 0_1, \ldots, p - 1_1, 0_2, \ldots, p - 1_2\} \end{equation} with each member of the same set occurring exactly once in each row and column. To prove that this $ORS$ is a $\BRS$ we need to show that the block design obtained from the rows in the usual way is balanced. Consider the blocks obtained from the first $p$ rows. We have shown already that the first row of $A$ consisted of two blocks, left ($R_1 \cup N_2$) and right ($N_1 \cup R_2$). The last stage of the construction put the pairs $\{\infty _2, 0_1\}$ and $\{\infty _1,0_2\}$ in row $0_1$ of the finished array. So the blocks obtained from the first $p$ rows are, \begin{equation} R_1 \cup N_2 \cup \{\infty _2, \infty _1 \} \end{equation} \begin{equation} N_1 \cup R_2 \cup \{0 _1, 0 _2 \} \end{equation} and their translates. By similar reasoning the blocks obtained from the next $p$ rows are, \begin{equation} R_2 \cup R_1 \cup \{0 _1, \infty _2 \} \end{equation} \begin{equation} N_1 \cup N_2 \cup \{0 _2, \infty _1 \} \end{equation} and their translates. Finally the row labelled $\infty$ contributes a further two blocks to the design. $\{0_1, \infty _1\} \cup R_1 \cup N_1$, obtained from the left hand members of pairs and $\{0_2, \infty _2\} \cup R_2 \cup N_2$, obtained from the right hand members. Fortunately, Schellenberg has shown that these blocks do indeed form a $\BIBD$ with parameters, $(2(p + 1), p + 1, p)$. To show this we consider another result due to Bose. He showed that the blocks $\{\infty, x^0, x^2, \ldots, x^{q - 3}\}\{0, x^0, x^2, \ldots, x^{q - 3}\}$ form a difference system in $GF(q)$ with $\lambda = (q - 1)/2$. This result implies that the blocks $\{\infty, x^1, x^3, \ldots, x^{q - 2}\}\{0, x^1, x^3, \ldots, x^{q - 2}\}$ also form a difference system with the same concurrence number. \end{example}
