See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

     Appellant appeals from the magistrate judge's order granting

Defendant's motion for summary judgment in this employment discrim-

ination action. See 28 U.S.C.A. § 636(c) (West 1993). We have
reviewed the record and the magistrate judge's opinion and find no

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

magistrate judge. Meeker v. USAIR, Inc., No. CA-94-216-3-MCK

(W.D.N.C. Jan. 2, 1996). We dispense with oral argument because the

facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the mate-

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