Spitzer and Widom derived their result from a formula of Cauchy, expressing the length of the circumference of a compact, convex set in the plane in terms of the lengths of the projections of the set on the lines of the plane and from a lemma of Kac [2, p. 507], asserting the validity of formula (1.1) in the limiting case where the vectors in U all lie on the same line. Thus, in spite of the purely combinatorial nature of this lemma, their proof was not combinatorial. Then one of us (see [1]) succeeded in giving a combinatorial proof of Theorem 1.1 and on the basis of this result the following conjecture was made. Let V„(o) denote the area of K(o) and let T(uAl,uAl) denote the area of a triangle with sides uAl,uÄ2 and uAl + uÄ2. Then
