          Appeal No. 1997-2769                                                        
          Application No. 08/138,649                                                  


          combination of the admitted prior art and Welch fails to meet               
          every limitation of the claim.  Accordingly, we cannot sustain              
          the rejection.                                                              
                                     CONCLUSION                                       
               The decision of the examiner rejecting claim 1 under                   
          35 U.S.C. § 103 is reversed.                                                
                                      REVERSED
