THE REJECTIONS

provide support for the invention as now claimed.2

second paragraph, as failing to particularly point out and
distinctly claim the subject matter which the appellant regards
as the invention.2
Claims 11 and 22 further stand rejected under 35 U.S.C.
§ 103 as being unpatentable over Scott in view of Time.

Paper No. 8.
The opposing viewpoints of the appellant are set forth in
the Brief and the Reply Brief.
