We have measured the distributions of the jet energies in e+e- --> qq^bar gevents, and of the three orientation angles of the event plane, using hadronic$Z^0$ decays collected in the SLD experiment at SLAC. We find that the data arewell described by perturbative QCD incorporating vector gluons. We have alsocompared our data with models of scalar and tensor gluon production, anddiscuss limits on the relative contributions of these particles to three-jetproduction in e+e- annihilation.Comment: 26 pages Latex and 17 figures in EPS format.
