                             ___________

Before BEAM, LOKEN, and MORRIS SHEPPARD ARNOLD, Circuit Judges.
                           ___________

PER CURIAM.


     William H. Whetstine, an Iowa inmate, appeals the district
court's1 adverse judgment following a bench trial in Whetstine's 42
U.S.C. § 1983 action. We conclude the district court's judgment
for defendants was correct, and that an extended discussion is not
warranted. Accordingly, the judgment is affirmed. See 8th Cir. R.
47B.




     1
      The Honorable Charles R. Wolle, Chief Judge, United States
District Court for the Southern District of Iowa.
