          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 9 and 18-20.                  
          Claims 1-8, 10-17 and 21-25 were indicated to contain allowable             
          subject matter by the examiner.  In response to the appellants’             
          appeal brief, the examiner has indicated that claims 18-20 now              
          contain allowable subject matter [supplemental answer, page 2].             
          Therefore, the only claim remaining in this appeal is claim 9.              

                                         -1-
