          Application No. 08/836,892                                                  


               For the reasons set forth above, the decision of the                   
          examiner to reject claims 28, 33, 34 and 36 to 40 under 35                  
          U.S.C. § 103 is reversed.                                                   


          The 35 U.S.C. § 103 rejection based on Long and Upson or                    
          Childers                                                                    
               We will not sustain the rejection of claims 33 to 35                   
          under 35 U.S.C. § 103 as being unpatentable over Long as                    
          applied to claim 33 above, and further in view of Upson or                  
          Childers.                                                                   


               We have reviewed the references to Upson and Childers                  
          additionally applied in this rejection of claims 33 to 35 but               
          find nothing therein which makes up for the deficiency of Long              
          discussed above with respect to claim 33.  Accordingly, we                  
          cannot sustain this rejection of appealed claims 33 to 35                   
          under                                                                       
          35 U.S.C. § 103.
