Energy levels in ${\mathrm{O}}^{17}$, ${\mathrm{F}}^{18}$, ${\mathrm{F}}^{19}$, and ${\mathrm{Ne}}^{20}$ are calculated. The wave functions for the various states are generated from intrinsic deformed potential wave functions. The wave functions for which best agreement is obtained are similar to those obtained by Redlich. No a priori assumptions are made on the form of the two-body forces. These are adjusted to give best fit with experiment. The agreement obtained between the calculated and experimental energy levels is good.
