Alice Roth has made an extensive study of entire meromorphic functions with prescribed behavior along half rays emanating from the origin (6). The question arose whether analogous results could be found for functions meromorphic in the unit disk with the same behavior prescribed along an exhaustive class of spirals emanating from the origin. In this paper, I present a class of spirals which satisfactorily fills this role. However, I make no claim to the effect that only this class will suffice.
