                    __________

          the  parties' briefs, we are fully persuaded that the court below

          did  not err  in  granting  summary  judgment  in  favor  of  the

          defendant.  Since  the reasons underlying this ruling are clearly

          set  forth in the  district court's  opinion, see  Salas-Rijos v.

          well-reasoned rescript.

                    Affirmed.
