          JERRY SMITH, Administrative Patent Judge.                                   

                                 DECISION ON APPEAL                                   
          This is a decision on the appeal under 35 U.S.C. § 134                      
          from the examiner’s final rejection of claims 1-15, 17-22 and 26.           
          Claims 16 and 23 have been cancelled.  Claims 24 and 25 were                
          indicated to contain allowable subject matter.  An amendment                
          after final rejection was filed on June 23, 1999 but was denied             
          entry by the examiner.  Appellant has withdrawn the appeal with             
          respect to claims 1, 6, 7, 12 and 17 [brief, page 2].  Therefore,           
          this appeal is now directed to the rejection of claims 2-5, 8-11,           

                                          1
