          Appeal No. 97-0115                                                          
          Application 08/220,341                                                      


          having slits near each of its side edges to form integral tie               
          straps, such slits do not extend from the bottom edge of a                  
          first part of the blank and terminate in the center part of                 
          the blank as recited in claim 9.  Thus, Harreld would not have              
          suggested modifying the Artzt blank so as to arrive at the                  
          specific side edge slit construction specified in claim 9.
