RICH, Judge.

These appeals are from the decision of the Board of Patent Interferences in a three-party interference involving only pending applications in which priority was awarded to Harmsen,1 the junior-most party, as against Lokey,2 the intermediate party, and Goodrich,3 the senior party. We reverse and find that Lokey is entitled to priority on the present record.
