The existence of two T = 0, negative-G vector mesons--one coupled to the baryon currert, the other coupled to the hypercharge current---was first discussed within the framework of the vector theory of strong interactions. New, rather weak, evidence for a K-K resonance at 1020 Mev has also been found. The possible interpretation of this resonance as the decay of a T = 0, J = 1/sup -2/ meson is discussed here. The experimental and theoretical consequences of having a T = 0, J = 1/sup -2/ meson with mass > 2m/sub K/ in addition to the well established T = 0, J = 1/sup -2/ omega meson are investigated.
