          Appeal No. 1998-1102                                                        
          Application No. 08/761,883                                                  


          would overcome the innate deficiencies of Cederbaum and                     
          Manning discussed supra.                                                    







               In conclusion, since the Examiner has not established a                
          prima facie case of obviousness, the 35 U.S.C. § 103 rejection              
          of independent claim 15 and claims 16-22 dependent thereon,                 
          cannot be sustained.  Therefore, the decision of the Examiner               
          rejecting claims 15-22 is reversed.
