                  Application No. 09/104,409                                                                                                              


                           The rejection of claims 13 and 16 under 35 U.S.C. § 103 is not sustained.                                                      
                  Further, since Yoder fails to provide for the deficiencies of the primary references noted                                              
                  supra, we also will not sustain the rejection of claim 17 under 35 U.S.C. § 103.                                                        
                           The examiner’s decision rejecting claims 13, 16 and 17 under 35 U.S.C. § 103 is
