This case has been referred to a panel of the court pursuant to Rule 9(a), Rules of the Sixth Circuit. Upon examination of the record and the brief, this panel unanimously agrees that oral argument is not needed. Fed. R. App. P. 34(a).
This pro se Tennessee plaintiff seeks appointment of counsel and appeals the judgment of the district court dismissing his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 civil rights complaint.

Accordingly, we hereby deny plaintiff's motion for the appointment of counsel and affirm the district court's judgment for the reasons set forth in the court's memorandum and order filed August 5, 1987. Rule 9(b) (5), Rules of the Sixth Circuit.
