A set of $1985$ points is distributed around the circumference of a circle and each of the points is marked with $1$ or $-1$. A point is called “good” if the partial sums that can be formed by starting at that point and proceeding around the circle for any distance in either direction are all strictly positive. Show that if the number of points marked with $-1$ is less than $662$, there must be at least one good point.

In the plane we are given a set $ E$ of 1991 points, and certain pairs of these points are joined with a path. We suppose that for every point of $ E,$ there exist at least 1593 other points of $ E$ to which it is joined by a path. Show that there exist six points of $ E$ every pair of which are joined by a path. [i]Alternative version:[/i] Is it possible to find a set $ E$ of 1991 points in the plane and paths joining certain pairs of the points in $ E$ such that every point of $ E$ is joined with a path to at least 1592 other points of $ E,$ and in every subset of six points of $ E$ there exist at least two points that are not joined?

Let $\mathcal{S}$ be a finite set of at least two points in the plane. Assume that no three points of $\mathcal S$ are collinear. A [i]windmill[/i] is a process that starts with a line $\ell$ going through a single point $P \in \mathcal S$. The line rotates clockwise about the [i]pivot[/i] $P$ until the first time that the line meets some other point belonging to $\mathcal S$. This point, $Q$, takes over as the new pivot, and the line now rotates clockwise about $Q$, until it next meets a point of $\mathcal S$. This process continues indefinitely. Show that we can choose a point $P$ in $\mathcal S$ and a line $\ell$ going through $P$ such that the resulting windmill uses each point of $\mathcal S$ as a pivot infinitely many times.
