Problem Statement

Show that the edges of a strongly connected bipolar graph can be oriented in such a way that for any edge e e there is a simple directed path from pole p p to pole q q containing e e. (A strongly connected bipolar graph is a finite connected graph with two special vertices p p and q q having the property that there are no points x,y,x \not \equal{} y, such that all paths from x x to p p as well as all paths from x x to q q contain y y.)
