Let G be a finite group. A natural invariant c(G) of G has been defined by W.J. Ralph, as the order (possibly infinite) of a distinguished element of a certain abelian group associated to G. Ralph has shown that c(Zn ) = 1 and c(Z 2 ⴲ Z2 ) = 2. In the present paper we show that c(G) is finite whenever G is a dihedral group or a 2-group, and obtain upper bounds for c(G) in these cases.
