          Appeal No. 97-1086                                                          
          Application 08/326,604                                                      



          references to Isert and Neighbour, we note the presence of no               
          such structure in those references either.                                  
          Accordingly, we will not sustain the examiner's rejection of                
          claim 3 or the claims which depend therefrom under 35 U.S.C.                
          § 103.                                                                      


                    Based on the foregoing reasoning, we have sustained               
          the examiner's rejection under 35 U.S.C. § 103 of claims 1, 2,              


          10, 11 and 12, but reversed the examiner's rejections of                    
          claims 3 through 9 and 13 under 35 U.S.C. § 103.  The decision              
          of the examiner is accordingly affirmed-in-part.                            


                    No time period for taking any subsequent action in                
          con- nection with this appeal may be extended under 37 CFR §                
          1.136(a).                                                                   


                                  AFFIRMED-IN-PART                                    





                                          8
