          Interference No. 103,036                                                    


          material and indicate voltage of reissue claims 24 to 29.  The              
          motion relies upon the testimony of Dr. Feder at CR 53 to 57 and            
          64.  Dr. Feder testified that the Burroughs et al. specification            
          does not disclose means between the conductive layer and the                
          battery which performs a thermal insulating function to allow               
          heat generated by the conductive layer to sufficiently heat the             
          heat-sensitive color indicator material.                                    
                    As we noted in our decision on item 5, supra, the                 
          Burroughs et al. specification is sufficient to show that the               
          natural result flowing from the operation of Figure 10 is to                
          permit the heat generated by the conductive layer to change the             
          color of the temperature sensitive color indicator material.                
          Accordingly, for the reasons given in item 5, supra, the motion             
          is denied as to item 6.                                                     
                    In item 7, the motion urges that the Burroughs et al.             
          specification does not contain a written description for the “air           
          pocket" limitation of reissue claims 30 to 32 and 40.  The motion           
          relies upon the testimony of Dr. Feder at CR 65 and 66.  With               
          respect to claims 30 to 32, Feder testified that the Burroughs et           
          al. specification does not disclose an air pocket as a part of              
          the temperature sensitive color indicator, the indicator device             
          10D of Figure 10, but rather discloses the air pocket as being              




                                        -49-
