PER CURIAM:

     Robert H. Clegg appeals the district court’s order granting

summary judgment to the Defendant in his employment discrimination

action. We have reviewed the record and the district court’s opin-

ion and find no reversible error.   Accordingly, we affirm on the

reasoning of the district court. See Clegg v. West, No. CA-97-986-

A (E.D. Va. Oct. 20, 1997); see also West v. Gibson, ___ U.S. ___,

67 U.S.L.W. 4462, 4465 (June 14, 1999) (No. 98-238).   We dispense

with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are ade-

quately presented in the materials before the court and argument

would not aid the decisional process.




                                                          AFFIRMED
