.ATLANTA'S GRAYD
OPERA FUND UP

ATLANTA, Ca, Jan. 31.-The sub
scription guarantee list for the 1916
season of Metropolitan grand pera
for Atlanta and the South took a
grand jump to total of $4,000 today,
although subscriptions were only OPP
ened Friday and the only solicitation
has been the mailing of cards to for
mer guarantors.
The subscriptions have been rapid
and spontaneous, showing that citizens
regard it as a privilege to have their
names on the list.
AS only $4,000 is wanted, it is ex-
pccted that the list will be completed
within the next few days. No guar
antor has ever been called upon for a
penny, in past seasons, and everything
POINTS this year to one of the most
successful seasons ever held. The def
mite contracts have already been clos
ed with the Metropolitan.

NEW YORK Jan. 29.-The an
nouncement that the Cornell Uniyers-
itv Athletic Association has signed
Coach Jack Moakley to ten year
contract to train the Ithaca track team
is another example of the manner IN
which Cornell looks ahead in the mat
ter of collegiate and intercollegiate
SPORTS. Moakley came to Cornell sew
egteen years ago and since 1899 has
had charge of the track and cross
country squads without break. If he
lives out the term of his new contract
with Cornell he will have served the
Red and White for twenty-seven years
"a record which is unequalled in this
line of varsity sport at this time.
Like COACH Courtney of the rowing
department, Moakley has become
fixture at Cornell. Some years ago af-
ter a notable victory for the Ithisa I'M
iyersity track team, Moakley, like
Courtney, was given a handsome home
by the alumni and underclassmen so
that today both Courtney and Moakley
are as much a part of Cornell and
Ithca as the oldest inhabitant. Moak-
ley's children have grown up and been
graduated from Cornell and so fas as
ole can look into the future Moakley
will complete his active career at Cor
nell.
In singning Moakley to another long
term contract Cornell has taken time
by teh forelook and prevented any
rival university from lifting the fam
Gus coach.
The same method was pursued, t o
some extent, in the case of DR.. Al:
Sharpe, the football COACH, and as a
result when Yale alumni expressed the
desire that Sharpe return to New
haven and lift Eli football to a win
ming plane, it was found that he was
under a five year contract with four
years yet to run.
With Courtney Moakley and Sharpe
all signed up for some years, major
sports at Cornell are in the hands OF
excellent coaches, satisfactory to stud
ents, alumni and faculty. No greater
honor can come to Moakley except his
