Appeal No. 94-2716 Application 07/764,775 use@-type language, but does positively recite in the last clause of claim 1 two functional properties attributable to the slender members. Since we did not sustain the rejection of independent claim 1 under 35 U.S.C. ' 102, we must also reverse the rejection of its dependent claims 2 to 9.
