132, utilizes an example of a l-dimensional arcwise connected continuum X in 3 with the fixed point property.His question (5) asks if XXI has the fixed point property.The answer is yes, and the proof given uses standard techniques of point-set topology.A recent paper of Bing [l] contains a proof that the topological space X shown in the figure has the fixed point property (FPP), where X contains two sin 1/x curves c and / starting from c and/ respectively with closures cU [d, e] and fVJ [a, b], and an "expanding spiral" h starting at h, with closure h\j[a, c]\Jc^J[d, f\Uf.All the a A /\ ^--^19
