          Appeal No. 96-1515                                                          
          Application 08/161/859                                                      



          examiner, we make reference to the brief and the answer for                 
          the respective details thereof.                                             


          OPINION                                                                     
          We have carefully considered the subject matter on                          
          appeal, the rejections advanced by the examiner, the arguments              
          in support of the rejections and the evidence of anticipation               
          and obviousness relied upon by the examiner as support for the              
          prior art rejections.  We have, likewise, reviewed and taken                
          into consideration, in reaching our decision, the appellants’               
          arguments set forth in the brief along with the examiner’s                  
          rationale in support of the rejections and arguments in                     
          rebuttal set forth in the examiner’s answer.                                
          It is our view, after consideration of the record                           
          before us, that the disclosure in this application describes                
          the claimed invention in a manner which complies with the                   
          requirements of                                                             
          35 U.S.C. § 112.  We are also of the view that the evidence                 
          relied upon would not have suggested to one of ordinary skill               
          in the art the obviousness of the invention as set forth in                 

                                          4
