          DECISION ON APPEAL                                                          
               This is an appeal under 35 U.S.C. § 134 from the                       
          examiner’s final rejection of claims 1 through 46 and 50                    
          through 52.  Claims 47 through 49, the only other claims                    
          pending in this application, stand objected to by the examiner              
          as allowable if rewritten in independent form and thus are not              
          before us in this appeal (Brief, page 2; Final Rejection dated              
          Aug. 27, 1996, Paper                                                        
          No. 12, paragraph bridging pages 3-4).
