          Application No. 08/177,347                                                  


               The recitation of “said third member” in line 2 of claim               
          10 should be changed to – said engaging member – to provide                 
          proper antecedent basis for this element.  If the recommended               
          amendment is adopted, claim 10 would be allowable on the                    
          present record.                                                             
               Should appellants elect to adopt the foregoing                         
          recommendation, the time for filing an amendment for that                   
          purpose is hereby set to expire one month from the date of                  
          this response to appellants’ request.                                       
               No time period for taking any subsequent action in                     
          connection with this appeal may be extended under 37 CFR
