Per Curiam.    This is an appeal from a Maine District Court               Per Curiam               __________          finding of trademark infringement under the Lanham Act, 15 U.S.C.             1051-1127, with  the  issuance of  a permanent  injunction and          damages  in the  amount of  $10,750.00.  The  issue on  appeal is          whether the trial  court erred  in determining that  there was  a          likelihood  of  trademark   confusion.    The   determination  of          likelihood of  trademark confusion is one  of fact that  is to be          set  aside on appellate review  only if clearly  erroneous.  Keds                                                                       ____          Corp. v.  Renee Int'l Trading Corp., 888  F.2d 215, 222 (1st Cir.          __________________________________          1989).  We  have reviewed the parties  and record on  appeal, and          find no clear  error.   We affirm  the judgment  of the  district          court essentially for the reasons stated in the  district court's          opinion and order dated  November 19, 1991.               Affirmed.               Affirmed.               ________                                          2
