Argued Oct. 6, 1966.
Decided Oct. 28, 1966.
George T. Mobille, Washington, D. C., and Ralph Bailey, Jr., Greenville, S. C. (Edward M. Prince and Cushman, Darby & Cushman, Washington, D. C., on brief), for appellants.

Before SOBELOFF, BRYAN and CRAVEN, Circuit Judges.

Opinion:
PER CURIAM:
In a carefully considered opinion, the district judge clearly demonstrated the invalidity of the patent. See Mabs, Inc. v. Piedmont Shirt Company, 248 F.Supp. 71 (W.D.S.C.1965). Commendably, he then went further and, assuming its validity, adjudged it not infringed. We agree on both aspects of the case, and affirm for the reasons stated by the district judge.
Affirmed.
