               We reverse the rejection of claim 18 under 35 U.S.C. ~ 103             
          as being unpatentable over Bivens in view of Talbot and further             
          in view Gebauer or Yamamoto, and further in view of Ceska.                  


          II.  The Rejection of Claim 6                                               

          Claim 6 requires that the second component further                          
          comprises a sugar.  This claim is set forth below:                          
                                                                                     
          6.  A composition according to claim 1 wherein said first                   
          component, second component, or both further comprises a sugar.             
                                                                                     
               In the rejection, the examiner additionally relies upon                
          Ceska for teaching that sugars serve as accelerators in                     
          combination with a peroxide initiator. (answer, page 4).                    
          For the reasons set forth in Appeal No. 2002-0173 (a copy                   
          which is provided herewith), in connection with the combination             
          of Bivens in view of Ceska, we reverse the rejection involving              
          claim 6.                                                                    











                                          6
