PER CURIAM:

     Leo Moore appeals his conviction and sentence imposed for pos-

session of cocaine base in violation of 21 U.S.C. § 844 (1994).   We

affirm.    The district court did not err in denying Moore’s motion

to suppress.    See United States v. Sokolow, 490 U.S. 1, 7 (1989);

United States v. Leshuk, 65 F.3d 1105, 1109-10 (4th Cir. 1995).   We

also find, when viewed in the light most favorable to the Govern-

ment, the evidence was sufficient to support Moore’s conviction.

See Glasser v. United States, 315 U.S. 60, 80 (1942).    Likewise,

the court did not clearly err in its determination of the amount of

drugs attributable to Moore for sentencing purposes and thus prop-

erly determined Moore’s base offense level.   See United States v.

D’Anjou, 16 F.3d 604, 614 (4th Cir. 1994); U.S. Sentencing Guide-

lines Manual § 2D2.1(b)(1) (1998).     We therefore affirm Moore’s

conviction and sentence.    We dispense with oral argument because

the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the ma-

terials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional

process.
