For a compact minimal hypersurface $M$ in $S^{n+1}$ with the squared length of the second fundamental form $S$ we confirm that there exists a positive constant $\de(n)$ depending only on $n,$ such that if $n\leq S\leq n +\delta(n)$, then $S\equiv n$, i.e., $M$ is a Clifford minimal hypersurface, in particular, when $n\ge 6,$ the pinching constant $\de(n)=\f{n}{23}.$
