Abstract: A gauge theory of second order in the derivatives of the auxiliary field is constructed following Utiyama's program. A novel field strength G=partialF+fAF arises besides the one of the first order treatment, F=partialApartialA+fAA. The associated conserved current is obtained. It has a new feature: topological terms are determined from local invariance requirements. Podolsky Generalized Eletrodynamics is derived as a particular case in which the Lagrangian of the gauge field is LPproptoG2. In this application the photon mass is estimated. The SU(N) infrared regime is analysed by means of Alekseev-Arbuzov-Baikov's Lagrangian.
