  The structure of the reported excitation spectra of the light unflavored
baryons is described in terms of multi-spin valued Lorentz group
representations of the so called Rarita-Schwinger (RS) type (K/2, K/2)* [(1/
2,0)+ (0,1/2)] with K=1,3, and 5. We first motivate legitimacy of such pattern
as fundamental fields as they emerge in the decomposition of triple fermion
constructs into Lorentz representations. We then study the baryon realization
of RS fields as composite systems by means of the quark version of the U(4)
symmetric diatomic rovibron model. In using the U(4)/ O(4)/ O(3)/ O(2)
reduction chain, we are able to reproduce quantum numbers and mass splittings
of the above resonance assemblies. We present the essentials of the four
dimensional angular momentum algebra and construct electromagnetic tensor
operators. The predictive power of the model is illustrated by ratios of
reduced probabilities concerning electric de-excitations of various resonances
to the nucleon.
