    The result of \textit{R. Deville, G. Godefroy} and \textit{V. Zizler} [Mathematika 40, No. 2, 305-321 (1993; Zbl 0792.46007), Lemma III.6] that every Banach space admitting a pointwise Lipschitz Fréchet smooth bump function is Asplund is strengthened by weakening the assumption on the bump function to (upper semin)continuous symmetrically Fréchet subdifferentiable, i.e. NEWLINE\[NEWLINE\liminf_{h\to 0 }\frac{f(x+h)+f(x-h)-2f(x)}{\|h\|}\geq 0.NEWLINE\]
