Let V be an origin-symmetric convex body in n , n≥ 2, of Gaussian measure γ n ( V ) 1 / 2 . It is proved that for every choice u 1 , . . . , u n of vectors in the Euclidean unit ball B n , there exist signs ε j - 1 , 1 with ε 1 u 1 + . . . + ε n u n ( c l o g n ) V . The method used can be modified to give simple proofs of several related results of J. Spencer and E. D. Gluskin.
