Famed Clown, Felix Adler Dies:
Performed in Circus SO Years

Felix Adler. 81. the circus
clown who for half a century
tickled the funny bones of a
Nation, died yesterday in New
York's st. Clare's Hospital fol-
lowing a second emergency
operation.
The clown whose trademarks
were a bulbous light-up nose, a
preposterous hustle. tiny UNI
brella and performing pigs,
entered the hospital two weeks
ago for treatment of ulcers and
a liver ailment.
All his career was spent with
one circus, Ringing Bros. which
later merged with Barnum &
Bailey. He quit the show in
May. 1858, not because he had
tired of making people laugh,
but because buses and trucks
had replaced trains for inter-
city travel.
Frequent Visitor Here
There are thousands of
Washington children, and
others now grown, who will
never forget the antics of the
King of Clowns. Mr.. Adler
lived to make them laugh, and
when they could not come to
him, he went to them.
Hardly a year passed that he
did not visit Children's Hospi-
tai here. To see children laugh
ing for the first time in a long
while seemed to be the ulti-
mate reward for his art.
The White House provided
another favorite interlude for
Felix. He patted the heads of
many a presidential child and
grandchild, both at the White
House and at the circus presi-
Dental boxes. But then, the
head Of no child ever wanted
for patting when Felix could
reach it.
For the last 10 years of his
career, Felix had a female ad-
junct to his act. She was his
wife the former Amelia Irwin,
who was a credit adjuster in a
Richmond CVaD department
store when he met her in l947.
Right then Mr.. Adler made
probably the best use in his
life of one of the countless
little pigs that shared his clown
world. He sent the porker
squealing over to Miss Irwin S
desk, thereby struck up an ac-
