The BNL/CCNY group has observed and performed a partial wave analysis on approx. 4000 (22 GeV) ..pi../sup -/p ..-->.. phi phi n events. The OZI suppression has been found to be almost completely broken down. The phi phi spectrum is found to be composed almost entirely of I/sup G/J/sup PC/ = 0/sup +/2/sup + +/ partially waves which occur in S and D-waves with spin zero and spin two. Assuming (1) QCD is correct, and (2) the OZI rule is universal for weakly coupled glue in disconnected Zweig diagrams due to the creation or annihilation of new types of quarks; it is concluded that one to three primary glueballs with the above quantum numbers are responsible for the observed data. 23 references.
