PER CURIAM:

     Appellant appeals from the district court's order adopting the

magistrate judge's recommendation to dismiss his employment dis-

crimination action filed under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of

1964, 42 U.S.C. § 2000e (1994). 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. Wright v. Mass
Transit Admin., No. CA-96-99-AMD (D. Md. Aug. 1, 1996). 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.
