Abstract. Let Φ be in the disc algebra H ∩ C(T) with its restriction to T in the Zygmund space of smooth functions λ*(T). If P(Φ') ⊂ T is the set of Plessner points of Φ' and if F = Φ + Ψ, where Ψ∈C1(T), it is shown that F(P(Φ')) ⊆ C is a set of zero linear Hausdorff measure. Applications are given to the spectral theory of multiplication operators.
