I just looked on HQ's website and apparently BB Deuteron is # 50 but it was started in 1881 (St. Lawrence University). I have no idea what that's all about.

In the early years, the Fraternity would re-use chapter designations after an early chapter had closed. They discontinued that practice after the 1890 convention and decided to add a Beta prefix to those chapters showing they were the second chapter of that letter.
See my post
