AFFIRMED.
Before SPROUSE and WILKINS, Circuit Judges, and BUTZNER, Senior Circuit Judge.
PER CURIAM:

1
Timothy Lamont Williams appeals from the district court's order denying relief under 42 U.S.C. Sec. 1983.  Our review of the record and the district court's opinion accepting the recommendation of the magistrate discloses that this appeal is without merit.*   Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court.  Williams v. Garraghty, C/A No. 87-361-AM (E.D.Va. Oct. 17, 1989).  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.

2
AFFIRMED.

*
 The claim against Warden Garraghty was properly dismissed because Williams failed to show any evidence that the warden was personally involved in any fashion in the alleged incident.   See Slakau v. Porter, 737 F.2d 368 (4th Cir.1984), cert. denied, 470 U.S. 1035 (1985)
