Oh Boy! I ran lickety-split to my Manual of Delta Upsilon (1926) in great anticipation, only to find...that it has no photos whatsoever.

It IS a cool photograph, wherever it came from. Come to think of it, my chapter staged a similar picture for our listing in the yearbook, with everyone climbing up in a hugh live oak in Florida. Perhaps it was inspired by that picture? I don't recall. It was around the same time it came out in the Paedagogus, and we were definitely Lambda Chis!

As for D.U., the chapter could have been Colby (founded 1852), Colgate (1866) or Cornell (1869). Maybe even Columbia (1885), if they still had big trees like that in NYC then.

Very interesting question.

ZAX,
Jono

PS - "lickety-split" adv. informal. With great speed. [Prob. alteration of LICK + SPLIT] American Heritage Dictionary
