BROKEN HEART
 TAKES CANINE
Rex, AQuaplane : Riding Dog at Atlantic City,
 Played to l5,OOO,OOO

Atlantic City, Nov. 27 - Rex, last of the three greatest canine per- formers America has ever known,- is dead.
 He succumbed to a broken heart, resort veterinarians aver, mourning his mistress, Mrs. Selma Sterling, who died less than "a hours before the famous brindle sheppard went to dog heaven.
 Rex played to more than 15,000,. 900 in the seven years he was star red as "the worlds only aquaplane- riding dog" in the Steel Pier water circus. Tn addition to his daily per- sonal appearances during the Pier Summer season, he has been pre- sented in his solo aquaplane act to millions of movie-goers by Lowell Thomas and many other famous commentators. Every newsreel con- pany has "shot" his water act and Rex, through these annual movie performances. has beea shown in more countries than any other ani. nal on record, with the possible eX- ception of the late movie star dog, Rim Tin-Tin.
 Together with Rin- -Tin-Tin and Pete, the Our Gang comedy dog with the perennial black eye, Rex tops the canine world as star performer. The Late Commander Frank Sterling, who built submar- ines in World War I and com manded a U. s. Navy gunboat in Chinese waters prior to his retire ment and death, was the owner of this remarkable animal. He acquired him seven years ago and had him taking his regular turn in the water circus in a remarkably short time.
 Having perfected motorized ski boards for the inauguration of the first Steel Pier water circus in 1885, he brought his new pet with him and started training him along with the human performers who were to ride the waves behind 40-mile hour speedboats. Within a week, Rex was riding water ski solo and could stay on the skimming boards in even the choppiest seas-oft times in fact, when his wo-legged fellow workers were dumped into the rough sea.
 Until a week or so ago, Mrs Sterling could be seen strolling the Boardwalk every day exercising Rex. Then she was taken seriously i'll and died. Rex didn't get his daily ! Aln cried plaintively throughout the night for two straight nights. The third day he slipped into his dress ing room on the Steel Pier the only home that he has known for seven years-and quietly passed away.
