A partially ordered space is an ordered pair (X, ≤) where X is a compact metric space and ≤ is a partial ordering on X such that ≤ is a closed subset of the Cartesian product X×X. ≤ is said to be a closed partial order on X.

The theorem of the title asserts that every non-degenerate continuum (that is, every compact connected Hausdorff space containing more than one point) contains at least two non-cutpoints. This is a fundamental result in set - theoretic topology and several standard proofs, each varying from the others to some extent, have been published. (See, for example, [1], [4] and [5]). The author has presented a less standard proof in [3] where the non-cutpoint existence theorem was obtained as a corollary to a result on partially ordered spaces. In this note a refinement of that argument is offered which seems to the author to be the simplest proof extant. To facilitate its exposition, the notion of a weak partially ordered space is introduced and the cutpoint partial order of connected spaces is reviewed.

In his recent book [3] Nadler observes that the property of admitting a Whitney map is of fundamental importance in studying the internal structure of hyperspaces, especially their arc structure. Nadler presents three distinct methods of constructing a Whitney map on the hyperspace 2X of nonempty closed subsets of a continuum.A partially ordered space is a topological space X endowed with a partial order ≤ whose graph is a closed subset of X×X. It is well-known (see, for example, [2], page 167) that if X is a regular Hausdorff space then 2X is a partially ordered space with respect to inclusion.

A continuum will be a connected, compact, metric space. By a mapping we mean a continuous function. By a partially ordered space X we mean a continuum X together with a partial order which is closed when regarded as a subset of X × X. We let 2x (resp. C(X)) denote the hyperspace of closed subsets (resp. subcontinua) of X with the Vietoris topology which coincides with the topology induced by the Hausdorff metric. The hyperspaces 2X and C(X) are arcwise connected metric continua (see [3, Theorem 2.7]). If A ⊂ X we let C(A) denote the subspace of subcontinua of X which lie in A.If X is a partially ordered space we define two functions L, M : X → 2X by setting for each x ∊ X
