European Stars and Stripes (Newspaper) - April 23, 1990, Darmstadt, Hesse                                Monday april 23, 1990 the stars and stripes a a a Page 7who wrote Shakespeare probably Shakespeare Claremont Calif. Api a after years of sophisticated computerized studies a group of scholars trying to find out who really wrote William Shakespeare a plays has settled on a Likely candidate a William Shakespeare. Students and faculty at Claremont Mckenna colleges Shakespeare project presented those findings saturday. But College spokesman Robert Daseler says one  leap to the conclusion that a a ally a Well that ends Well or even that the three year project turned out to be a much ado about  for the head of the Shakespeare project Ward Elliott still is unconvinced that Shakespeare knew of what he wrote said Daseler. He is Only willing to concede that after three years of study just about All other prominent elizabethan writers that other scholars once thought were the real writers of Shakespeare a plays really weren to. And that leaves As the Only serious contender Well Shakespeare. Or maybe a fairly obscure elizabethan poet named Fulke Grenville. Or perhaps even Queen Elizabeth i. But apparently not Christopher Marlowe or Francis Bacon a two prominent elizabethans that Many scholars have Long argued May have used shake speared a name As a Nom de plume. For nearly two centuries English scholars have debated whether someone with Shakespeare a education a about that of a Modem High school graduate a could have written plays that snowed such a precise knowledge of falconry geography court manners and several foreign languages to say nothing of such a stunning command of the English language. A would no to somebody who was better educated who had gone on to Oxford and studied greek and All these other things have been More Likely to have written those plays asked Daseler. That a what Ward a political science professor Robert Valenza a mathematics professor and several students sought to find out. Key to their research Daseler said was a Field of mathematics and computer technology called signal processing that organizations such As the Central intelligence Agency use to Analyse data. A using the signal processing method Valenza and students working with him Analysed Shakespeare a work in terms of some of the key words that Shakespeare used frequently a Daseler said. A they Analysed 52 that seemed to have More than a random importance to  among the words were grief ground heaven Hope lovers desire death tears Praise secret and voice. The researchers compared the Way Shakespeare used the words to the Way other writers including Marlowe Bacon and Grenville used them. In All the researchers put More than 3 million words including 884,000 written by Shakespeare into computer data Banks for their Battery of tests. What they found was that the works of Bacon and Marlowe weren to that similar to the works of Shakespeare Daseler said. Nor were the works of John Donne Edmund Spenser Michael Drayton or Edward Devere the Earl of Oxford All of whom have been suspected of being the real writer of Shakespeare a plays. A a Grenville might qualify a Daseler said. A this work showed a great Deal of consistency with regard to Shakespeare a. Queen Elizabeth i also showed a Little bit of  but the general conclusion of the scholars was that Shakespeare wrote the plays. A Valenza now says he believes Shakespeare wrote Shakespeare a Daseler said. A award Elliott who has been heading this study for three years still believes they re going to find somebody else. But he docs admit that they have eliminated All the existing  forces evacuation of 150 from vegas hotel Las vegas apr a top floor fire routed 150 guests from a five Story hotel near the Las vegas strip before Dawn saturday. The fire destroyed the roof and fifth floor of the 75-room Las vegas inn but Only seven minor injuries were reported among hotel guests and 60 firefighters involved said City spokesman Doug Bradford. The hotel had fire sprinklers on just the Bottom two floors but the Las vegas fire department had developed a firefighting plan specifically for the inn and the scheme was credited with saving lives and most of the Structure. The fire apparently began in the attic but the Point of origin and cause were not immediately determined. Evacuees and scores of onlookers stared As firefighters poured water onto the top of the hotel where the fire broke out just before 2 30 . And sent smoke billowing past the casinos of the glittering strip two blocks away. A fall of our plane tickets and everything is in there a said Carol grass of fort Bragg n.c., looking up to her room As charred shingles fell free. Two guests suffered smoke inhalation two had minor cuts and bruises and one had Chest pains. One firefighter sprained an ankle and another suffered a minor wrist injury the City spokesman said. The fire department was called at 2 29 . And firefighters were on the scene by 2 35 ., Bradford said. Fire sprinkler retrofitting Laws were enacted in Nevada after the disastrous Mem grand hotel fire which killed 87 people in november 1980. However the Las vegas inn was exempt from retrofitting Laws because the buildings height did not exceed 55 feet Bradford said. The hotel was inspected in january and alarms were found to be working. There were Only minor injuries As guests evacuated the Las vegas inn because of a fire that destroyed the fifth floor. In controversial move Boeing raises retirement age to 63 for its test pilots by the new York times in a move Likely to rekindle the debate Over the age at which airline pilots should be forced from the cockpit Boeing has agreed to raise the mandatory retirement age of its test pilots to 63 from 60, provided the pilots undergo rigorous mental and physical tests. Current Federal rules require airline pilots to retire at 60. Dozens of pilots and some members of Congress Are trying to get that Rule overturned. They argue that advances in medical testing make the 30-year-old Rule obsolete. They claim older pilots provide added experience in the cockpit during an Era in which pilots hired by the airlines Are younger and less experienced. The Issue has become a crucial one partly because the trend toward less experienced pilots is expected to continue As the airlines demand for More pilots rises aviation experts said. There have been several recent cases where older pilots have drawn on their experience and used unorthodox Maneu vers to Rescue a crippled Jet. The new policy at Boeing is part of an agreement that the company reached with its pilots and the Federal government to resolve a 1984 lawsuit on behalf of company pilots who were forced to retire at 60. The governments Rule requiring that pilots retire at 60 applies Only to commercial airlines not for pilots who Fly for private companies like Boeing. But Boeing followed the government s Lead and adopted a similar Rule. Boeing a pilots test the company a planes. The Issue of Boeing a retirement policy has driven a wedge Between two agencies of the Federal government pitting the Faa against the equal employment Opportunity commission. The Job rights Agency whose lawyers represented the Boeing pilots in their grievance with the company have been pushing to have the Faass age-60 Rule overturned. The aviation Agency has been defending it on safety grounds. A with this agreement Leoc is breaking new ground in dealing with age discrimination specifically age ceilings for pilots Quot said Evan j. Kemp jr., chairman of the Job rights Agency. But Fred Farrar a spokesman for the aviation Agency said the Boeing agreement would not affect the Faa s position on mandatory retirement at 60. A your concern is with Protection of passengers a he said. Still the Type of test flying done by the Boeing pilots is in Many ways More demanding than flying by airline pilots. The pilots will have to undergo More rigorous medical tests beginning at age 57. Boeing which employs about 120 test pilots will decide in 1995 whether to make the policy permanent. Those fighting the mandatory retirement Rule also contend that advances in medical testing make it possible for older pilots to continue to Fly safely until age 65. 500 protest teens death Teaneck .
