Abstract

A simple derivation of a limiting distribution of Logan, Mallows, Rice and Shepp is found. This is the limiting distribution of a sequence of partial sums of independent, identically distributed random variables in the domain of attraction of a stable law, normalized by the partial sums of the absolute values of these variables.
