Each of the works has its own pattern and personality; swirls of color caused by the reaction between different types of glass are combined into one fluid shape. “It’s amazing watching how some types of glass reacts with others,” he said. “Some of it’s predictable to some extent, but you don’t want to try and control it too much, or everything will turn out the same.” Schneider starts with the most basic ingredient: sand, which he heats, blows, shapes and molds in his studio on York Street. “Anyone can come by and watch me work,” Schneider said. “It really is a fascinating process.” Fascination with the process is what drove Schneider into the business, he said.

H ere they are —- the eight candidates in Plymouth’s City Commission race. This guide gives residents the facts they’ll need when they go to the polls Nov 4. The three candidates receiving the most votes will serve four-year terms; the fourth elected will serve two years. All candidates were invited to meet with Crier staff in a group interview last Wednesday. Each was asked about personal and professional background and what they thought about recent issues the current City Commission has faced: The Mayflower Hotel renovation, merged services between the City and Township and the plagued Ann Arbor Trail project. Here are their responses. Next week, The Crier prints its candidate endorsements. Fred Dilacovo

Describing himself as a non-candidate, Dilacovo is, for all intents er, but said that family and work commitments have taken priority and purposes, out of the race. He did not want to drop out altogeth- and preclude him from persuing the seat.
