          Appeal No. 1997-0533                                                        
          Application No. 08/353,916                                                  


               For the foregoing reasons, we determine that the examiner              
          has failed to establish a prima facie case of obviousness in                
          view of the reference evidence on this record.  Therefore, the              
          examiner’s rejection of claims 1 through 20 under 35 U.S.C. §               
          103 over Anderson in view of Andersson and Brinley is                       
          reversed.                                                                   
               The decision of the examiner is reversed.                              
          REVERSED
