Abstract
It is proven by elementary methods that in dimension 2, every locally injective continuous map, sending the curves of a Ck-spray to curves of another Ck-spray as oriented point sets, is a Ck-diffeomorphism. This extends the result [1] for dimension three and higher from 1965.

The problem appeared in discussions between Thomas Schneider, Markus Stroppel and Vladimir Matveev, whom I thank for posing it to me.
