     Resolved resonance parameters from Ref. 1 (Ehi=3500 eV).     
     The bound level at -163.0 eV has Gamma-n = 1.91395 eV and    
     Gamma-gamma = 0.088 eV.  This choice gives the desired       
     value for the thermal capture cross section, 2.74+-0.08 b.   
     Values of Gamma-gamma not given in Ref.1 are set to 0.088 eV.
     21 resonances [L=1] did not have values given for "J", 10 are
     assigned to J= 0.5 and the remaining 11 to J= 1.5 by random  
     method.  The value for the scattering radius is 7.6fm, taken 
     from Ref.2 with small change with in the given error, so as  
     to produce the close value of the thermal neutron scattering 
     cross section recommended by Mughabghab [2].  Highest energy 
     resonance included is 3304.1 eV.  No background cross        
     sections were given.

      The cross sections were obtained by subtracting a sum of    
      reaction cross sections from the total cross sections.
