  "claims": [
    "1. An adjustable jig for locating anchor bolts in outdoor lighting installations, which comprises: four corner members disposed in a rectangular arrangement, said corner members each having opposite complementary ends adapted for slidable overlapping engagement with an end of an adjacent corner member; each corner member including a generally transverse notch for receiving an anchor bolt therein; means for interconnecting said corner members together in a predetermined position to form a rigid unit; and means for securing the anchor bolts to said corner members in mutually parallel, aligned relationship generally transverse to the jig.",
    "2. The adjustable jig of claim 1, wherein said corner members are of generally channel-like cross section.",
    "3. The adjustable jig of claim 1, wherein said corner members are of generally L-shape bent in about the middle, with both ends of two of said corner members being of predetermined male configuration, and both ends of the other two corner members being of predetermined female configuration, for mating engagement in alternating sequence.",
    "4. The adjustable jig of claim 1, wherein said corner members are of generally L-shape bent in about the middle, with opposite ends of each corner member being of predetermined male and female configurations, for mating engagment with adjacent corner members.",
    "5. The adjustable jig of claim 1, wherein said corner members are formed from galvanized metal.",
    "6. The adjustable jig of claim 1, wherein said means for interconnecting said corner members comprises threaded fasteners extending through overlapping ends of adjacent corner members.",
    "7. An adjustable jig for locating anchor bolts in outdoor lighting installations, which comprises: members of four corner members disposed in a rectangular arrangement, said corner members having opposite complementary ends adapted for slidable overlapping engagement with an end of an adjacent corner member; each corner member including an outside notch for receiving an anchor bolt therein; means for interconnecting said corner members together in a predetermined position; and means for securing the anchor bolts to said corner members, said means for securing the anchor bolts to said corner members comprising wire ties.",
    "8. An adjustable jig for locating anchor bolts in outdoor lighting installations, which comprises: four corner members disposed in a rectangular arrangement; each corner member having opposite mating male and female ends adapted for slidable overlapping engagement with an end of an adjacent corner member; each corner member including an outside, generally transverse notch for receiving an anchor bolt therein; and means for interconnecting said corner members together in a predetermined position to form a rigid unit.",
    "9. The adjustable jig of claim 8, wherein said corner members are of generally channel-like cross section.",
    "10. The adjustable jig of claim 8, wherein said corner members are formed from galvanized metal.",
    "11. The adjustable jig of claim 8, wherein said means for interconnecting said corner members comprises threaded fasteners extending through overlapping ends of adjacent corner members.",
    "12. The adjustable jig of claim 8, further including: means for securing the anchor bolts to said corner members in mutually parallel, aligned relationship transverse to the jig."
