PER CURIAM.
Sammie Smith appeals from the district court's1 adverse grant of summary
judgment in his discriminatory-discharge action. Upon a de novo review of the record,
see Earnest v. Courtney, 64 F.3d 365, 366-67 (8th Cir. 1995) (per curiam), we
conclude that summary judgment was correct for the reasons the district court stated.

The Honorable Garnett Thomas Eisele, United States District Judge for the
Eastern District of Arkansas.
See 8th Cir. R. 47B. As we had no occasion to review the papers outside of the record
that Smith submitted, we deny appellees' motions to strike.
