          Appeal No. 95-3781                                                          
          Application 07/978,223                                                      

                    polarization suggests the continuous                              
                    rotation of the polarizer."                                       
                    The appellant argues that the combination recited in              
          claims 10-17 distinguishes over the combined teachings of the               
          Korth and Cohn.  However, appellant has not specifically                    
          contested any of the findings or the reasoning of the examiner              
          with respect to the rejection of these claims.  We are of the               
          opinion that the findings and reasoning of the examiner in                  
          regard to the rejection of these claims is reasonable and in                
          the absence of any argument by the appellant controverting the              
          findings and reasoning of the examiner, we will sustain the                 
          rejection of claims 10-17 as unpatentable under 35 U.S.C. §                 
          103.                                                                        
                    In summary, the examiner's rejection of claims 6 and              
          9 under 35 U.S.C. § 112, second paragraph is reversed.  The                 
          examiner's rejections of claims 1 and 10-17 under 35 U.S.C. §               
          103 is affirmed.                                                            









                                        -11-
