        February 22, 1994       [NOT FOR PUBLICATION]                            UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS                                FOR THE FIRST CIRCUIT                                 ____________________        No. 93-2341                               GILBERT MAURICE GAUDREAU,                                Plaintiff, Appellant,                                          v.                               COMMERCIAL CREDIT CORP.,                                 Defendant, Appellee.                                 ____________________                     APPEAL FROM THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT                          FOR THE DISTRICT OF NEW HAMPSHIRE                    [Hon. Paul J. Barbadoro, U.S. District Judge]                                             ___________________                                 ____________________                                        Before                                 Breyer, Chief Judge,                                         ___________                            Cyr and Stahl, Circuit Judges.                                           ______________                                 ____________________            Gilbert Maurice Gaudreau on brief pro se.            ________________________                                 ____________________                                 ____________________                      Per Curiam.  The complaint, which asserted libel in                      __________            purely  conclusory terms,  failed  to  state  a  libel  claim            because  plaintiff did not  describe any  libelous statement.            Despite  warning provided by the magistrate's report that the            complaint  was too skeletal,  plaintiff failed to  remedy the            deficiency.    Consequently,   the  complaint  was   properly            dismissed, and plaintiff's  post-judgment motion was properly            denied.                      Affirmed.                      ________                                         -2-
