               1    According to Appellants, Robert A. Malkin is also a                 
          co-inventor.  (Paper "A" (Req. FWC App., 7 Nov. 1990) at 1.)                  
          Since the record does not otherwise reflect this fact,                        
          Appellants should comply with 37 CFR § 1.48, as amended at                    
          62 Fed. Reg. 53131, 53185 (Oct. 10, 1997).                                    
               2    Attorney docket no. CASE-78.                                        
               3    Counsel for Appellants requested a hearing via                      
          teleconference.  Although the examiner asked to present oral                  
          argument pursuant to 37 CFR § 1.194(b), he subsequently waived                
          his request.
