I love the old photos also. The one you posted, I think I saw it in Frater Lawrence Ross' book The Divine Nine.

Tri Delta Pansy Breakfast at USC----1957

This was a photo from the Los Angeles Times from the Pansy Breakfast which was held in the front garden at the Tri Delta chapter house at USC. Greek women were guests at the breakfast and announced their engagement by stepping through the Pansy Ring. Pictured here is Tri Delta, Judy Green, who wore a long white wedding gown in this photo from 1957. Judy was also a Homecoming Princess at SC.

The event was covered by the Times and was one of the city's social events in that era.

This chapter originated the Pansy Breakfast. It is now held by chapters across the country as a spring event honoring graduating seniors.

The USC Digital Library archives have a bunch of great retro sorority photographs.

http://digitallibrary.usc.edu/search...ller/index.htm

Just enter 'sorority' in the search field.

This is probably true of many digital archives of universities with strong tradition ties to their Greek community
