Special now -CZL fffr $1.19 BARD OF AVON NO ROGUE CRITIC SAYS WILLIAM SHAKES PE.iKE WAS CEX'l'LEMANi - Inlvernity of Orejson Students Also Told Great Poet Earned About " S4O0O Every Year. UNIVERSITY OP OREGON, Eugene. Or.. Feb. IS. (Special.) William Shakespeare was a gentleman; ho was not fabulously rich, and modern, drama is not an inheritance of ancient miracle end parable plays. These were assertions made to the students of the university by Xr. Charles William Wallace, Shakes nearean critic. Dr. Wallace recently re turned from England where h and his wife passed the last 12 years examin ing1 5,000.000 original records. The records enow. Dr. Wallace says, that the term gentleman was com monly applied, to. men in Shakespeare's days whether or not a man had money, This disputes those who have said Shakespeare was a "rogue ana vag abond." Dr. Wallace admitted Shakes peare was a groom in the King's fam ily, but asserted it eimply was an ex pedient often employed by actors of those days to prevent arrest. The records also show, according to Dr. Wallace, that Shakespeare's total income in 1G0S was 240 pounds a year, which would amount to about $4000 now, as the purchasing power of money then was from three to four times the purchasing power today. In documents which he will publish later Dr. Wallace said he would prove that the modern drama is not an her itage of ancient miracle and parable plays, but that the break came at the time of Shakespeare.
