The results were so successful that he is now conceded to be the fore most designer in glass in this country, a title which he had no deliberate Intention of acquiring. Still adhering to his creed that he is primarily a sculptor, he occa sionally accepts a commission to design in glass if he considers the project interesting and worthwhile. His latest is the design of the glass medal to be awarded in the Com petition of the Pittsburgh Glass In stitute.
