An apparatus for the transfer of rod-shaped articles from a longitudinal conveyor that longitudinal axially conveys the articles onto a transverse conveyor that transverse axial conveys the articles transversely to their axes, a direction of transport of the longitudinal conveyor and the transverse conveyor being transverse to each other. The compounds of Formula VI are useful as intermediates in the manufacture of antibiotic agents. The reflector 18 is deactivated to produce the full space pattern. Because the target has at least two vital areas on each body section side, a hunterarcher is able to have multiple angels of insertion into a vital area. The assembly further includes two tab portions located on opposing ends of the rail portions. The present invention also concerns a method of making such a polyester or copolyester by late injection of the substituted cyclic anhydride at the end of polycondensation, or alternatively adding the substituted cyclic anhydride to the preform injection molding machine, prior to stretch blow molding a container.
