          Appeal No. 2000-2147                                                        
          Application No. 08/835,709                                                  
          claim 13 is sustained.  The 35 U.S.C. § 103(a) rejection of                 
          claims 14 through 22 is likewise sustained because the appellant            
          has chosen to let these claims stand or fall with claim                     
          13 (brief, page 14).                                                        
                                      DECISION                                        
               The decision of the examiner rejecting claims 1, 2, 5 and              
          7 through 12 under 35 U.S.C. § 102(b) is reversed, and the                  
          decision of the examiner rejecting claims 3, 4 and 6 under                  
          35 U.S.C. § 103(a) is reversed.  With respect to claims                     
          13 through 22, the 35 U.S.C. § 103(a) rejection is affirmed.                
          Accordingly, the decision of the examiner is affirmed-in-part.              



                                                                                     










                                          7
