                 Per Curiam.    Upon careful  review  of the  briefs  and
__________



            record,  we  conclude   that  the  district  court   properly



            dismissed  appellant's amended complaint  because it  did not



            state  a  cognizable  federal  claim.   To  the  extent  that



            appellant  attempts to  raise other  issues  in this  appeal,



            those issues do not merit further comment.



                 Affirmed.  See 1st Cir. Loc. R. 27.1.
