               The following rejection is before us for review.                       


               The design claim stands rejected under 35 U.S.C. § 103(a) as           
          being unpatentable over Tillander in view of Huntley and Molins.

          the argument presented by appellants appears in the answer (Paper           
          No. 9), while the complete statement of appellants’ argument can
