PER CURIAM:

     Appellant appeals from the district court's order granting

summary judgment to the Appellees in this action alleging employ-

ment discrimination. 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. Matthews v. Eveready

Battery Co., Inc., No. CA-92-610-2 (M.D.N.C. June 26, 1995). 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
