ORDER

2
Alfred Harrison, a pro se Ohio citizen, appeals the district court's order granting summary judgment for the defendant.  This case has been referred to a panel of the court pursuant to Rule 9(a), Rules of the Sixth Circuit.  Upon examination, this panel unanimously agrees that oral argument is not needed.  Fed.R.App.P. 34(a).

3
Seeking monetary, declaratory and injunctive relief, Harrison sued his former employer, alleging that he was discharged on account of his African-American race in violation of Title VII.  The district court determined that Harrison's claims were without merit and granted summary judgment for the defendant.  Harrison has filed a timely appeal.  In his brief, he requests the appointment of counsel.

4
Upon review, we conclude that the district court properly granted summary judgment.  There is no genuine issue of material fact and the defendant is entitled to judgment as a matter of law.  Fed.R.Civ.P. 56(c);  Celotex Corp. v. Catrett, 477 U.S. 317, 323 (1986).

5
Accordingly, we deny counsel and affirm the judgment for the reasons set forth in the district court's order filed on March 6, 1991.  Rule 9(b)(3), Rules of the Sixth Circuit.
