Wins Tourney in Dominican Republic
New Store in Fort Wayne, Ind.
A new organ and piano store at 1110
South Harrison St., Fort Wayne, Ind.
was opened in January by Mr. and Mrs.
Ralph P. Jennings. Minshall-Estey or-
pianos as well as Maas chimes are be-
gans, Story & Clark pianos and Packard
ing handled by this new company. Since
Mr. and Mrs. Jennings are accomplished
organists and pianists, at the opening
they made a special feature of the Min-
shall-Estey organ.
Several years ago, Mr. Jennings was
in charge of the organ department of
the Battle Creek and Kalamazoo, Mich,
stores of Grinnell Bros. More recently
he has been in charge of the organ and
piano department of Dick Piano Sales
and later changed operations to the
Packard Piano Co. in Fort Wayne. As-
sociated with Mr. Jennings in the new
business is Donald Lint, formerly of
Hillsdale. Mich.
At the opening, organ concerts were
presented by Louis Gerard, English or-
ganist, and Marguerite Hitzeman, Fort
Wayne's own concert organist and
pianist.
