A model incorporating three left-handed SU(2){sub {ital L}}{times}U(1){sub {ital Y}}-doublet neutrinos and three right-handed singlet neutrinos, with leptonic Dirac mass submatrices similar to empirical forms which work well for quarks, is required to yield both the nonadiabatic Mikheyev-Smirnov-Wolfenstein solar neutrino effect and the depleted flux of atmospheric muon neutrinos observed by Kamiokande. We find a small segment of the {delta}{ital m}{sub 23}{sup 2} vs sin{sup 2}2{theta}{sub 23} plane exists where such solutions can be achieved and identify the class or right-handed Majorana submatrices required.
