          Appeal No. 97-0124                                                           
          Application No. 08/273,672                                                   


          applied prior art, we also cannot sustain the Examiner’s                     
          rejection of claims 7/5 and 10/2 which depend therefrom.                     
               In conclusion, we have not sustained the rejection of claims            
          4-9 under 35 U.S.C. § 112 nor the rejection of claims 2, 5, 7/5,             
          and 10/2 under 35 U.S.C. § 103, but we have sustained the                    
          rejection of claims 1, 4, 7/4, 8, 9, and 10/1 under 35 U.S.C.                
          § 102(b).  Accordingly, the decision of the Examiner rejecting               
          claims 1, 2, and 4-10 is affirmed-in-part.                                   
               No time period for taking any subsequent action in                                                                     
          connection with this appeal may be extended under 37 CFR                     
          § 1.136(a).                                                                  
                                  AFFIRMED-IN-PART
