Description of the flag

St Catharine's College of Cambridge University uses a flag with a red field, yellow St Catherine's wheel. The college website shows the arms. A large picture is provided by biannual newsletter, named after the symbol. An old depiction of arms shows the wheel as merely the crest.

At http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Image:St_Catharine's_college_flag.jpg is a not so good image of the same flag, or of an identical flag. Comparing with http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Catz_shield.svg, http://www.heraldicneedlepoint.com/acatalog/info_52.html, and others, it seems that the flag shows a stylized version of the arms � not only it lacks black contour lines but also (more importantly) it shows eight, not sixteen blades. In that regard, the break wheel on the flag looks more like http://www.student.caths.cam.ac.uk/mcr/images/logo.jpg its students� union logo.

At http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St_Catharine%27s_College%2C_Cambridge the colors of St Catharine's College are given as burgundy and pink, not
taken from the arms.
