AFFIRMED.
Before TORRUELLA, Chief Judge, SELYA and CYR, Circuit Judges.
Per Curiam.
1For the reasons set forth at length in the magistrate-judge's report dated September 9, 1993, we agree that plaintiff's claim for damages for "injuries sustained in his mission work" is barred on res judicata grounds. See Dowd v. Society of St. Columbans, 861 F.2d 761 (1st Cir. 1988) (per curiam) (affirming dismissal of similar claim on same basis). We likewise agree that plaintiff's claim under the Americans with Disabilities Act is properly subject to dismissal without prejudice for failure to exhaust administrative remedies. The judgment is therefore affirmed.
