          Appeal No. 1998-1069                                                        
          Application No. 08/259,575                                                  


               These findings are inadequate as they are conclusory                   
          statements based on a conglomeration of the references without              
          reasons for the combinations being provided by the references.              
               Therefore, we will not sustain the rejection of claims 54              
          and 56-61 under 35 U.S.C. § 103 as being unpatentable over                  
          Schwabe, Bergonzoni, Hsu, Ichikawa and Yamane.                              


               Accordingly, the Examiner's decision is reversed.                      
                                                                                     
                                   REVERSED
