By considering a hyperspace CL(X) of a Hausdorffspace X with the Vietoris topology [6] also called the finite topology and treating X as a subspace of CL(X) with the natural embedding, it is obtained that homotopic maps f, g : $X{\rightarrow}Y$ are lifted to homotopic maps on the respective hyperspaces.

Relations between closure-type properties of hyperspaces over a $\v{C}ech$ closure space (X, u) and covering properties of (X, u) are investigated.

Let $C(X)(C_{K}(X))$ denote the hyperspace of all nonempty closed connected subsets (subcontinua) of a locally compact Haus-dorff space X with the Fell topology. We prove that the following statements are equivalent: (1) X is locally connected. (2) C(X) is locally connected,. (3) C(X) is locally connected at each $E{\in}C_{k}(X).(4) C_{k}(X)$ is locally connected.

Let X be a space and $2^X$(C(X);K(X);$C_K$(X)) denote the hyperspace of nonempty closed subsets(connected closed subsets, compact subsets, subcontinua) of X with the Vietoris topology. We investigate the relationships between the space X and its hyperspaces concerning the properties of connectedness im kleinen. We obtained the following : Let X be a locally compact Hausdorff space. Let $x{\in}X$. Then the following statements are equivalent: (1) X is connected im kleinen at $x$. (2) $2^X$ is arcwise connected im kleinen at {$x$}. (3) K(X) is arcwise connected im kleinen at {$x$}. (4) $C_K$(X) is arcwise connected im kleinen at {$x$}. (5) C(X) is arcwise connected im kleinen at {$x$}.
