          Appeal No. 2000-1531                                                        
          Application No. 08/897,405                                                  


          examiner has not established a prima facie case of obviousness              
          with regard to this claimed subject matter.                                 
               Since Hargrove does not provide for the deficiencies of                
          Bloomberg and Endo, and we have not sustained the rejection of              
          independent claims 1, 10, 15 and 24 under 35 U.S.C. 103, we                 
          also will not sustain the rejection of dependent claims 2-9,                
          11-14, 16-23 and 25-28 under 35 U.S.C. 103.                                 





















               The examiner’s decision is reversed.                                   


                                      REVERSED                                        
                                         9–
