PER CURIAM:

OPINION

1

Herbert H. Bauer appeals from the district court's order dismissing his civil action for failure to prosecute, pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(b), and from the magistrate judge's order denying his request to extend the time for discovery. Our review of the record and the district court's opinions discloses no abuse of discretion. Accordingly, we dismiss this appeal as to Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company and affirm as to the other Appellees on the reasoning of the magistrate judge and the district court. Bauer v. Goodyear Aerospace Corp., No. CA-89-799-D-C (M.D.N.C. Dec. 23, 1991 and Jan. 27, 1992). 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.
