Abstract This collection contains the maroon ribbon used by administrative and student committees when voting for the new university color and a memorandum connected to the maroon ribbon. It also contains documents relating to the selection of the maroon as the school color. Information on Use Access This collection is open for research. Citation When quoting material from this collection, the preferred citation is: University of Chicago. School Color History. Collection, [Box #, Folder #], Special Collections Research Center, University of Chicago Library. Historical Note For the first years of the University of Chicago, there was considerable ambiguity as to its colors. In 1892, a committee of trustees recommended orange and grey as the university's colors, but only the color orange was officially adopted. However, this decision was far from final. Not only did the use of orange upset Syracuse University, it clashed with University of Chicago students' tradition of using gold as the university color. Complicating this was the use of many different shades of orange and gold in different combination at student events.

    May, 1910 NOTES ON THE NORTHWESTERN CROSSBILL, 93 these lines are a few tear shaped dots of black. In all these sets there is a resem- blance to eggs of the Orchard Oriole. In several eggs there is a faint flush of sub- dued purplish stain. The flight is swift and strong, accomplisht with quick beating of the wings, there being a peculiar, pent-up energy in their movements. They will start from a perch with an almost bullet-like swiftness. Their sociable nature is markt. They even feed together during the nesting season, there seemingly being no ill will among them. The scattered breeding colonies extend far into the wilderness. The past season I located three colonies which were nesting, and they did not vary in the time chosen nor in the selection of a nesting site; always in wild, mountain places, and the nests well hidden in the high branches of-pine trees. The nest-building began about the 10th of July and finisht about the 20th. In their late nesting they resemble the goldfinch which postpones the nesting duties until July and August. One might believe that this was simply a second nesting, but the large flocks do not break up until late in June, no young birds can be found until late in summer, there are no young birds in the summer colo- nies where they nest, and that they do not settle to work until July, has been my observation. I have worn out more than one pair of “mountain” shoes looking for February and March nests in ithis country, but have learned to stay away dur- ing that portion of the year.

    City of Orange Historic Context Statement

    City of Orange Historic Context Statement Prepared by Chattel Architecture, Planning & Preservation, Inc. Prepared for P&D Consultants for the City of Orange General Plan Update Revised November 2006 City of Orange Historic Context Statement Introduction and Methodology This historic context statement for the City of Orange (hereinafter “city” or “Orange”) is a synthesis of existing documentation and new research. The city currently contains two historic districts listed on the National Register of Historic Places (National Register) – The Plaza Historic District (Plaza District, listed in 1982) and the Old Towne Orange Historic District (Old Towne National Register District, listed in 1997). The City also contains a locally designated Old Towne district (Old Towne Local District or Old Towne, established in 1981 and described in the current City Historic Preservation Element). Each of these three districts has different boundaries and histories, or historic context statements. The following updated historic context statement for Old Towne and selected areas outside of Old Towne combines these histories, in addition to other histories compiled by the City and the Orange Public Library, as well as original historic research performed by Chattel Architecture, Planning & Preservation, Inc. (Chattel Architecture) and its archaeological sub-consultant, PAR Environmental Services, Inc. (PAR). Chattel Architecture conducted research at the Orange Public Library, the Orange County Archives, the UCLA Air Photo Archives, the Fairchild Aerial Photo Collection at Whittier College, and the Los Angeles Public Library. Additional general historical information comes from Phil Brigandi’s Orange: The City ‘Round the Plaza, and information on the Cypress Street Barrio comes from the Shades of Orange event held in Orange on June 4, 2005 and interviews with members of the Orange Barrio Historical Society.
