PER CURIAM:*

       In April 1997, Woodrow Jones ("Jones") filed suit in the

United      States   District      Court   for    the   Southern   District      of

Mississippi      against    his    employer,     Brookhaven    School    District

("Brookhaven"), alleging discrimination on the basis of race and

age.       In November 1997, Brookhaven filed a motion to dismiss or,

in   the     alternative,   a     motion   for   summary   judgment     which   was

ultimately granted in February 1998.              Jones timely appealed.        We

February 18, 1998, we AFFIRM the Final Judgment entered herein on

February 18, 1998.

                      AFFIRMED.
