          Application No. 08/162,372                                                   


          rejection of claim 1 under 35 U.S.C. § 103 as being                          
          unpatentable over the combination of Schurman and Byrns is                   
          also reversed.                                                               
















               Claims 8-15 are dependent on claim 1.  Since the                        
          rejections of claim 1 under 35 U.S.C. § 103 as being                         
          unpatentable over Schurman, both alone and in combination with               
          Byrns, have been reversed, the rejections of claims 8-15 under               
          35 U.S.C. § 103 as being unpatentable over Schurman, both                    
          alone and in combination with Byrns, are also reversed.  See                 
          37 CFR § 1.75(c) ("Claims in dependent form shall be construed
