          Appeal No. 95-2399                                                          
          Application 08/061,669                                                      



          knowledge of unquestionable demonstration.  Our reviewing court             
          requires this evidence in order to establish a prima facie case.            
          In re Knapp-Monarch Co., 296 F.2d 230, 232, 132 USPQ 6, 8 (CCPA             
          1961); In re Cofer, 354 F.2d 664, 668, 148 USPQ 268, 271-72 (CCPA           
          1966).  Therefore, we find that the Examiner has failed to                  
          establish why one having ordinary skill in the art would have               
          been led to the claimed invention by teachings or suggestions               
          found in the prior art.                                                     



                    We have not sustained the rejection of claims 1 through           
          3 and 5 through 10 under 35 U.S.C. § 103.  Accordingly, the                 
          Examiner's decision is reversed.                                            
                                      REVERSED
