States in /sup 153/Gd and /sup 155/Gd were populated with (p,t) reactions induced by 18 MeV protons. In /sup 153/Gd, strong 1 = 0 transitions were found to the 3/2-STA521! ground state and-the 3/2- BETA -vibrational state. excited rotational members of the ground state band and the BETA vibrational band were also identified. Strong 1 = 0 transitions were observed to the ground state, the 129, 509, and 531 keV levels in /sup 153/Gd. The population of members of the previously suggested ground state band in /sup 153/Gd confirms the earlier 3/2-STA521! assignment. It is proposed that the 129 keV level is a mixed state of which the major component may be the 3/2 1/2-STA530! Nilsson state. The 509 keV (3/2-) and 549 keV (5/2-) levels populated in the present experiment are probably members of a BETA -vibrational band in /sup 153/Gd. No explanation is offered for the strongly populated 3/2- level at 531 keV. (auth)
