          Appeal No. 1997-3581                                                        
          Application No. 08/010,291                                                  


          Examiner has not established a prima facie case of obviousness              
          with respect to the claims on appeal.  Accordingly, we do not               
          sustain the Examiner’s 35 U.S.C. § 103 rejection of                         
          independent                                                                 
          claims 1 and 6, nor of claims 2 and 3 dependent thereon.                    
          Therefore, the Examiner’s decision rejecting claims 1-3 and 6               
          is reversed.                                                                
                                      REVERSED
