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
