ORDER

PER CURIAM.

Plaintiff appeals from the judgment in defendants' favor in his action for damages for breach of his St. Louis Post-Dispatch Suburban Distributor Service Agreement. The judgment is supported by substantial evidence, is not against the weight of the evidence, and does not erroneously declare or apply the law. Murphy v. Carron, 536 S.W.2d 30, 32 (Mo. banc 1976).

An opinion reciting the detailed facts and restating the principles of law would have no precedential value. However, the parties have been furnished with a memorandum for their information only, setting forth the reasons for this order.

We affirm pursuant to Rule 84.16(b).
