## Opinion text

WORLEY, Chief Judge,
dissenting.
I am in complete agreement with the examiner and board that there is nothing here of a patentable nature. Indeed, it is as devoid of patentability as the subject matter of In re Balmer, 276 F.2d 405 , 47 CCPA 883. My reasons there are equally applicable here.
To give appellant a monopoly will effectively prevent others in this field from exercising even the simplest kind of ordinary skill.
