By establishing a new summation formula for the series ${}_3F_2(\frac{1}{2})$, recently Rathie and Pogany have obtained an interesting result known as Kummer type II transformation for the generalized hypergeometric function ${}_2F_2$. Here we aim at deriving their result by using a very elementary method and presenting two elegant results for certain terminating series ${}_3F_2(2)$. Furthermore two interesting applications of our new results are demonstrated.
Keywords: generalized hypergeometric series, Gauss's summation theorem, Gauss's second theorem, Kummer's first and second theorems, quadratic transformation, Kummer type I and II transformations, Kamp\'e de F\'eriet function
