The $sup 37$Cl($sup 3$He, $alpha$$gamma$$)$$sup 36$Cl reaction was studied at 18 MeV, using an enriched CaCl$sub 2$ target. The $gamma$ rays coincident with the $alpha$ particles emitted at forward angle were detected by two Ge(Li) detectors located at theta=90degree and 125degree. Forty-two levels were observed in $sup 36$Cl, essentially those seen in the (p,d) reaction. The $gamma$-decay schemes of the two lowest lying T=2 levels of $sup 36$Cl (analogs of the first two levels of $sup 36$S, J/sup pi/=0$sup +$ and 2$sup +$, respectively) have been determined. The lowest T=2 level at E/subx/=4299.5+-1.1 keV, feeds three levels: E/subx/=1165 keV (J/sup pi/=1$sup +$, 65+-8%), E/subx/ =1601 keV (J/sup pi/=1$sup +$, 28+-5%), and E/subx/=2677 keV (J/sup pi/=1$sup +$, 7+-3%). The second one at E/subx/=7564+-4 keV feeds the levels at E/subx/=1601 keV (42+-6%), E/subx/=1960 keV (J/sup pi/=2$sup +$, 40+-6%), and E/subx/=2491 keV (J/sup pi/=2$sup +$, 18+-4%). These decay schemes are compared with shell model predictions. Some other levels of $sup 36$Cl are also discussed. (AIP)
