    In this paper there are two types of results. The following are characteristic: Theorem 1. A complete, non-compact hypersurface of \(E^{n+1}\) with sectional curvature \(\geq 0\) is unbounded. Theorem 2. A complete hypersurface in \(S^{n+1}\), \(n\geq 4\), with sectional curvature \(\leq 1\) is totally geodesic.
