PER CURIAM:

            Eskedar Teshome-Gebreegziabher, a native and citizen of

Ethiopia,   petitions   for     review   of    an   order   of    the   Board   of

Immigration Appeals affirming the Immigration Judge’s denial of her

applications for relief from removal.               Teshome challenges the

determination that she failed to establish eligibility for asylum.

To obtain reversal of a determination denying eligibility for

relief, an alien “must show that the evidence he presented was so

compelling that no reasonable factfinder could fail to find the

requisite fear of persecution.”          INS v. Elias-Zacarias, 

, 483-84 (1992).     We have reviewed the evidence of record and

conclude that Teshome fails to show that the evidence compels a

contrary result.

            Accordingly,   we    deny    the   petition     for    review.      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.



                                                                 PETITION DENIED
