                                 DECISION ON APPEAL                                   
               Rodney G. Powers et al. originally took this appeal from the           
          final rejection of claims 6 through 10, all of the claims pending           
          in the application.  As the examiner has since withdrawn all                
          rejections of claims 7 and 10, which now stand objected to as               
          depending from a rejected base claim, the appeal as to these                
          claims is hereby dismissed, leaving for review the standing                 
          rejections of claims 6, 8 and 9.
