See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

     Appellant appeals the district court's order granting summary

judgment to his employer in his civil action in which he alleged

discrimination and wrongful discharge under Title VII of the Civil

Rights Act of 1964, as amended, 42 U.S.C. § 2000e-2 (1994), and 42
U.S.C. § 1981 (1994). We have reviewed the record and the district

court's opinion and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we

affirm on the reasoning of the district court. Smith v. Owens-

Illinois Closure, Inc., No. CA-96-104-3 (M.D.N.C. Apr. 1, 1997). 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.

                                                          AFFIRMED
