THE REJECTIONS
Claims 1-9 stand rejected under 35 U.S.C. § 101 on the
ground that the claimed invention is directed toward non-
statutory subject matter. Claims 1-20 stand rejected under
35 U.S.C. § 103 as being unpatentable over Hinkes taken with
Redenbaugh.
OPINION
We have carefully considered all of the arguments advanced
by appellant and the examiner and agree with appellant that the
rejection of claims 1-9 under 35 U.S.C. § 101 and the rejection
of claims 10-20 under 35 U.S.C. § 103 are not well founded.
