                  Appeal No. 2001-1340                                                                                                                    
                  Application 08/944,885                                                                                                                  




                           Since the claims on appeal recite functions which are not disclosed by Hogan,                                                  
                  the rejection of the claims on appeal as being anticipated by Hogan is not sustained.                                                   
                  Therefore, the decision of the examiner rejecting claims 1 and 3-6 is reversed.                                                         
                                                                    REVERSED
