          Judges.

                                 DECISION ON APPEAL                                   
               This is an appeal from the final rejection of claims 1-                
          11.  Claims 12-15, the other claims remaining in the present                
          application, stand withdrawn from consideration as being                    
          directed to a non-elected invention.  Claim 1 is illustrative:              

                                         -1-
