           Appeal from the United States District Court
               for the Eastern District of Louisiana
                       USDC No. 01-CV-2926-I
                        --------------------

Before HIGGINBOTHAM, DAVIS and PRADO, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

     Barbara Hoover has moved for leave to proceed in forma

pauperis (IFP) and for preparation of hearing transcripts at

government expense, relative to her appeal of a judgment for the

defendants in this employment-discrimination and civil-rights

action.   In her action, Hoover challenged the termination of her

employment by WWOZ, a New Orleans not-for-profit radio station,

     *
        Pursuant to 5TH CIR. R. 47.5, the court has determined
that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent
except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR.
R. 47.5.4.

                                 -2-

as an underwriter who sold air-time and as an on-air host.    Also

made a defendant was appellee Dolores Lindsey, who was WWOZ’s

underwriting manager.

     The district court dismissed the following claims alleged by

Hoover:   (1) sex discrimination claims against WWOZ and Lindsey;

(2) a race discrimination claim against Lindsey; (3) an age

discrimination claim against Lindsey; (4) Fourteenth Amendment

equal protection claims against WWOZ and Lindsey; (5) 42 U.S.C.

§ 1983 claims against both, for mail fraud and/or tampering; and

(6) claims against both under the Equal pay Act, 29 U.S.C

§ 206(d).   After a hearing, the court dismissed Hoover’s

remaining race and age discrimination claims against WWOZ, on

grounds that the court lacked subject-matter jurisdiction.     See

Greenlees v. Eidenmuller Enterprises, Inc., 

, 198-99

(5th Cir. 1994).

     To be entitled to proceed IFP in this court, Hoover must

show that she is a pauper and that she will present a

nonfrivolous issue on appeal.    See Carson v. Polley, 

, 586 (5th Cir. 1982).   Although it appears that Hoover is

financially eligible to proceed IFP, she has not identified a

nonfrivolous issue for appeal.   Nor has she set forth factual

allegations and legal arguments to demonstrate that she will

raise nonfrivolous issues on appeal.   Accordingly, Hoover’s IFP

motion is DENIED.
                          No. 03-30208
                               -3-

     Hoover is not entitled to transcripts at government expense

because she has not been granted leave to proceed IFP and she has

not shown why she needs the transcript.   See 28 U.S.C. § 753(f);

Harvey v. Andrist, 

, 571 (5th Cir. 1985).

Accordingly, her motion for transcripts at government expense is

DENIED.

     Because we have concluded on this review that the appeal is

frivolous, IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the appeal is DISMISSED.

See 5TH CIR. R. 42.2.

     MOTIONS DENIED; APPEAL DISMISSED.
