          Appeal No. 98-2034                                                          
          Application No. 08/571,276                                                  


          supply the deficiencies in                                                  


          the Bachrach-Federbush combination discussed above.  Since                  
          claims 2 through 7, 9, 10, 14 through 17 and 19 through 21 are              
          dependent on either claim 1 or claim 13 and contain all of the              
          limitations of the claim from which they depend, we will not                
          sustain the standing 35 U.S.C. § 103 rejections of these                    
          claims.                                                                     
               In summary, all of the examiner's rejections of claims 1               
          through 23 are reversed.                                                    


                                      REVERSED
