Firstly, we show that we can find some function $f\\in L^\\infty(\\mathbb{R})$, such that $Sf$ equals infinity on a nonzero measure set. Secondly, we can find compact supported function $f\\in L^\\infty(\\mathbb{R})$ and $\\mathcal I$ such that $S_\\mathcal{I} f$ does not belong to $BMO$ space. Finally, we show that $S$ is bounded from $L^{\\infty}_c$ to $BMO$ space. As a consequence, we solve an open question posed by Jones, Kaufman, Rosenblatt and Wierdl in \\cite{JKRW98}. That is, $S_\\mathcal I$ are uniformly bounded in $L^p(\\mathbb R)$ with respect to $\\mathcal I$ for $2
