Borough Rejects Terms
Of Traffic Light Permit
Rejection by the Borough of
the terms of the permit granted
by the Pennsylvania Highway
Department for the erection of a
traffic light at the erner of Al
len street and College avenue,
was announced Saturday by Hugh
B. Rice, Borough Manager.
In the terms pi the permit, said
Rice, no provision was made for
a special signal for left-hand
turns from College avenue on to
Allen street.
Another objection was made
because the permit did not allow
enough time for pedestrians to
cross the streets.
Re-study of the survey made by
thg Highway Department will be
necessary. Until the Department
offers solutions for the discrep
ancies as cited by the Borough, a
traffic light cannot be erected.

Medieval Cusfom Continues
At Graduation Exercises
Tradition begun centuries ago will be carried on when gradu
ating seniors and other candidates for degrees don their gowns
on June 9.
Originating in European churches, academic gowns are the out
growth of the habit worn by friars and monks in medieval monas
teries during the Dark Ages when most learning was under the
auspices of the church.
Red'was the traditional color of the church and early became
associated with theology while royal purple represented law. Early
medicine was based on the use of
shrubs and herbs and it was nat
ural that green should signify
medicine.'

STATE COLLEGE
THE bn,-. C~~LEGIAN, STATE COLLEGE, PENNSYLVANIA
Perhaps music created a rosy
hue for early academicians—in
any event—pink was the mark of
music and blue of truth. The lat
ter color was later identified, with
learning and philosophy.
Today, undergraduates wear
black gowns with long pointed
sleeves. Masters’ gowns are silk
faced with velvet and the end of
the sleeve closed and shaped in
a square. There is a slit opening
along the elbow. Doctors wear
gold tassels on their caps, while
undergraduates wear plain black.
Recipients of advanced degrees
at the College wear hoods with
linings of white for Master of
Arts, blue for Master of Educa
tion and yellow for Master of
Science.
i Undergraduate gowns are rent
ed by the Senior Class and grad
uates rent their gowns individu
ally from a rental agency.
