Eugene answered this. one of them is commented out in am file, I will 
correct it in geometry file.

refer to Xin's reply

Besides the two end cups, the middle part of the yoke are different.
Are those middle part come with magnet so we can't really modify them?
BaBar design has many more details in the middle part which I think 
Eugene did it not only for field but also engineering concern. Do want 
CDF to take advantage of that?
