                    The following references were relied on by the                    
          examiner:                                                                   
          Havemann                      4,703,554                Nov.  3,             
          1987

                                   THE REJECTIONS                                     
                    Claims 5-9 and 11 stand rejected under 35 U.S.C.                  
          § 103 as being unpatentable over Scovell in view of Havemann.               
                    Rather than reiterate the entire arguments of the                 
          appellants and the examiner in support of their respective                  
          positions with respect to this rejection, we make reference to              
          the appellants’ brief (Paper No. 19), the reply brief (Paper                
          No. 24) and the examiner’s answer (Paper No. 20) for the full               
          exposition thereof.                                                         
                                     OPINION                                          
                    In reaching our conclusions on the issues raised in               
          this appeal, we have carefully considered appellants’                       
          specification and claims, the applied references and the                    


                                         -3-
