Porter Warrington Heaps Wins Organists' Contest Porter W. Heaps, 2135 Ridge avenue, Evanston, organist of the First Con- gregational church of Wilmette, was victorious in the national inter-state music students' contest, in the organ division, at Philadelphia last week. In capturing this honor, Mr. Heaps was given recognition, it is reported, as the foremost organist in the United States under the age of 24 years. Mr. Heaps, who is a pupil of Stanley Martin, in charge of the organ course at North- western university School of Music, recently won the preliminaries to the national contest, first in Illinois, and then in four middle western states. That assured him the chance to com- pete in the national meet at Philadel- phia. Mr. Heaps is now a senior at North- western Music school and also is president of the music school's student council. He is well known and liked on the Evanston campus and was former- ly campus chapel organist. SELL EVANS HOME W. G. Stacey and company report having sold through their Wilmette of- fice the Charles N.
