      This order and judgment is not binding precedent, except under the
doctrines of law of the case, res judicata, and collateral estoppel. The court

ordered submitted without oral argument.

       Plaintiff Dudley R. Edwards, Jr., appearing pro se, appeals the district

court’s summary judgment dismissal of his complaint alleging claims under

42 U.S.C. §§ 1981, 1983, and Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.

       “We review the district court’s grant of summary judgment de novo,

applying the same standard used by the district court under Fed. R. Civ. P. 56(c).”

Novell, Inc. v. Federal Ins. Co.   , 141 F.3d 983, 985 (10th Cir. 1998). After

a thorough review of the record, we affirm for substantially the reasons stated by

the district court in its order dated October 3, 1997, granting summary judgment.

       The judgment of the United States District Court for the District of New

Mexico is AFFIRMED.
