PER CURIAM:

     Jerry    A.   Chandler   appeals   the   district   court’s   judgment

granting summary judgment to the Trustees of the United Mine

Workers of America 1974 Pension Plan on his claims for disability

pension benefits under the provisions of the Plan.                 We have

reviewed the record and the district court’s opinion and find no

reversible error.     Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the

district court. See Chandler v. Holland, No. CA-00-142-2 (W.D. Va.

Dec. 3, 2001).     We dispense with oral argument because the facts

and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials

before the court and argument would not aid the decisional process.




                                                                   AFFIRMED
