UNIVERSITY DESERTS
CAMPUS OVER WHICH
7 FLAGS HAVE FLOWN
BATON ROUCJE, La., Sept. 23 (/P)—
When the Louisiana State University
opens Friday on the new site, it will
have deserted a campus over which
the flags of seven nations have flown.
The old site which was tendered the
state when the U. S. Army garrison
was abandoned had since the seven
teenth century been used as an army
post by those seven nations.
The first banner to float in the
breezes was the Bourbon flag, “the
oriflamme of Navarre,” the white ban
ner embroidered with three golden
fleur-de-lis. This ensign was hauled
down in 1673 and in its stead the Un
ion Jack of Britain was raised. Gen
eral Galvez, with a force of Spaniards,
Americans and negroes marched on
the post from New Orleans 16 years
later, capturing it and raised over it
the flag of Spain with its lions and
castles in a center or red and yellow
stripes.
In 1810 the flag of the Republic of
West Florida replaced the Spanish
emblem when the fort was stormed by
General Philemon Thomas, and for a
few months the “lone star flag,” a
blue flag with a single silver star in
the center, floated over the campus.
The “Stars and Stripes” displaced the
“lone star flag,” when President Mad
ison ordered Governor Claiborne to
take control of the territory which
was considered a part of the Louisiana
Purchase.
For 51 yeyarys the “Star Spangled
Banner” fluttered proudly fluttered in
the breezes, to be hauled down and re
placed by the unique flag of the Re
public of Louisiana, which the state
became upon secession of the state
from the Union.
The flag that floated over the gar
rison during this period consisted of
13 stripes, four blue, six white and
three red and in the upper left hand
corner a field of red containing a sin
gle star of pale yellow. This was de
signed by a committee named for such
a purpose and combined the colors of
all flags that had up to that time
floated over the post.
The Stars and Bars of the Confed
eracy replaced the Louisiana flag,
when the state joined the forces of
the Confederacy.
When Farragut started up the Mis
sissippi to clear the route of Southern
forces, Baton Rouge was captured by
the Federals and the Stars and Stripes
again floated from the tall flag pole.
Of the seven flags that have floated
over Baton Rouge, four were of repub
lics and three of monarchies.
