PER CURIAM: Appellant appeals the district court's order granting summary judgment in favor of Defendant in his employment discrimination action. We have reviewed the record and the district court's opin- ion and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court. Buck v. State Highway Admin., No. CA-96-2632-S (D. Md. July 14, 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 deci- sional process.

AFFIRMED
