No. 94-1768.
United States Court of Appeals, Fourth Circuit.
June 30, 1995.

Arlie Barker, Petitioner Pro Se.
C. William Mangum and Christian P. Barber, Washington, DC
William J. Evans, Salt Lake City, UT
Before WILKINSON and MICHAEL, Circuit Judges, and CHAPMAN, Senior Circuit Judge.
PER CURIAM:

1
Appellant seeks review of the Benefits Review Board's decision and order and order on reconsideration affirming the administrative law judge's denial of black lung benefits pursuant to 30 U.S.C.A. Secs. 901-945 (West 1986 & Supp.1994).  Our review of the record discloses that the Board's decision is based upon substantial evidence and that this appeal is without merit.  Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the Board.  Barker v. Director, Office of Workers' Compensation Programs, Nos. 92-145-BLA;  92-145-BLA-A (B.R.B. May 9, 1994).  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
