          Appeal No. 97-1475                                                          
          Application 08/069,544                                                      


          arrangement wherein the lock which secures such a cover in                  
          position "must be removed to gain access to said ignition lock              
          tumbler," as set forth in appellant's method claim 27 on appeal.            
          In addition, our comments supra with regard to Dalby are again              
          pertinent here.  For these reasons, we will not sustain the                 
          examiner's rejections of claims 25 through 30 under 35 U.S.C.               
          § 103.                                                                      

               As is apparent from the foregoing, the examiner's  rejection           
          of claims 11 through 30 under 35 U.S.C. § 112, first paragraph              
          has been reversed, as has each of the examiner's rejections of              
          claims 11 through 30 under 35 U.S.C. § 103.                                 


                                      REVERSED

                                                  )                                   
                                                  )                                   
                                                  )
