School Colors Have
Undergone Changes
The Big White football teams of Penn State have not always
fought for athletic honors with the strains of "Fight, fight, fight for
the Blue and White" echoing across Beaver field. Indeed the football
team in 1890 had to "Fight, fight, fight for the Pink and Black;" for
up to that time, the College's colors were actually cerise (a euphuistic
name for dark pink) and black.
Yes, the first official colors, as
adopted in October, 1887, were
pink and black. Just what mys
terious events occurred which
changed the College's complexion
to blue and white
Well, it seems that, for a time
after the adoption of the pink and
black color scheme, everyone was

contented with it. The baseball
team turned out in dashing caps
of pink and black, black jerseys,
pink belts, white pants, and black
stockings. The class of 1891 used
the colors on the cover of its LA
Vie. A College yell, mentioning
the pink and black was adopted.
The sharper, male elements of the

pink and black striped blazers
and caps.
But, this is where the troubles
set in. The natty, pink and black
jackets were quite the rage until
it was discovered that in about
three weeks, the pink sort of lost
its pigment, leaving the blazers,
black and white striped—perhaps
a fitting article of apparel for the
State Penitentiary, but certainly
not for the Pennsylvania State
College.
So, on March 18, 1950, with the
pink still persisting in becoming
bleached, the momentous decision
was made to change the colors to
blue and white.
Again, the fashion - conscious
baseball team took the lead in ap
pearing in the new combination;
for the May 1890 issue of FREE
LANCE, (an 1890 version of COL
LEGIAN) commented, "Our new
ly adopted colors, white and navy
blue, look well."
