          Before JERRY SMITH, RUGGIERO, and HECKER, Administrative                    
          Patent Judges.                                                              
          HECKER, Administrative Patent Judge.                                        

                                 DECISION ON APPEAL                                   
               This is a decision on appeal from the final rejection of               
          claims 1 through 41.  Claims 21 and 22 have been subsequently               
          objected to as being dependent upon a rejected base claim, and              
          claims 24 through 41 have been subsequently allowed (answer-                
          page 2).  Thus claims 1 through 20 and 23 remain finally                    

                                          1
