                  Application No. 07/902,957

                  dependent from independent claim 38.  On the basis of the reasoning set forth                                                           
                  immediately above, the rejection of these claims is not sustained.                                                                      
                                                                     SUMMARY                                                                              
                           None of the rejections are sustained.                                                                                          
                           The decision of the examiner is reversed.
