1Opinion of the Court
WILBUR, Circuit Judge.
This is an action for infringement of the broad claims 6 and 8 of patent No. 1,-917,261 for a method of retreading worn tire casings, issued to P. E. Hawkinson July 11, 1933 upon application filed May 14, 1931. The trial court held that claim 6 was invalid but that claim 8 was valid and infringed by the defendant. Both sides appeal.
This patent was considered by the Circuit Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit in Gamble Skogmo v. Hawkinson Co., 98 F.2d 37, wherein it was held that claim 6, if valid, should be narrowly construed and, so construed, was not infringed.
