As in earlier Einstein- and Debye- approximations, there is a phase transition at $g_{c} = 1/2$. For $g<g_{c}$ the low-T heat-capacity $C \sim T^{3}$ whereas for $g>g_{c}$, $C \sim T$. The van Hove singularities disappear at {\em any finite $g$}. For $g>1/2$ we discover novel {\em fixed points} in the self-energy and spectral density of this model glass.Submitted to Phys. Rev.
