MAROON & GRAY

Class of 1932

STATE COLLEGE, PA.

Our Symbols

The State College High School has adopted the standard class seal shown above and, as the class of 1932 is the first to use it, we are making it the symbol of our book.

The Seal consists of four divisions: The Open Book, The Owl, The Lion Cub, and the Winged Foot, which constitute respectively knowledge, wisdom, general organizations, and athletics.

In the Maroon and Gray we are letting the four divisions symbolize the following.

The Open Book symbolizes the Faculty as they open their minds and help us as an open book in obtaining knowledge.

The Owl symbolizes the Seniors, as, having received the most education in the high school, should be the wisest.

The Lion Cub symbolizes the Other Classes and general Organizations. Our high school has been considered as the young Penn State and as their mascot is the lion, we have chosen the lion cub.

The Winged Foot has long been a symbol of Athletics and will remain so in our book.

A TRIBUTE

To Miss Laura A. Jones, whose sincere friendship and co-operation with us throughout these past four years we so fully appreciate, we respectfully dedicate this record of our high school lives.

OLD STATE HIGH

For four years the State College High School is viewed in varying manners by the readers of this page. A few regard it as a prison; others as a refuge for intellectual stimulation, social improvement and physical development. For a great number of years this building will be a memory of which the outline above will be a symbol. The fight that you make to hold the traditions that are worthwhile and substitute worthy ones for worthless ones will determine the kind of memories this symbol will bring to you. May every reader be able to sing truthfully and lustily:

"Hail, dear Old State High, loyal and true."

-Jo Hays.
