THE CENTENNIAL CELEBRATION CONTINUES 

VOLUME XCV OCTOBER 2015 ISSUE VI

FIFTY PHI TAU ALUMNI DESCEND ON COE’S 2015 HOMECOMING ! You couldn’t swing a shnoozing three-toed sloth without smacking a Phi Tau over the three-days of Homecoming 2015 at Coe. Golfing at Ellis, dining at the 3rd Base Brewery, Golfing in Shellsburg, dining at Parlor City, On the Wing, Coe’s Beer & Brats, The Football Game, Dining at Vito’s, lounging at McCulla’s, etc. – they were frickin’ everywhere!:-) Whether the following pictures/captions portray what really went on for those 4 days is irrelevant - bottom line is that a great time was had by all! YO!

He-He-He…Double-fistin’ barley pops in the Coe sunshine – it don’t

get no better

October 15‐17, 2015 – Coe Homecoming Golf 

Shit! – this is Joy’s Honey-Do list…oh,

what the hell - Fairlie – you’re up to

clean the toilet!

Larry McPhail ’72 demonstrates proper adult behavior for the weekend.

STILL LEADING US in the 2010s as they did in the late 1960s – Beilfuss, ’69, Gray ‘70 and Hilsabeck ‘70 were the first to the bar following golf in Shellsburg! (They claim they were behind in their Ensure dosage for the day!) Great to have these venerable leaders “back in the house”, and allow us to hear more of those Golden Years of Phi Tau stories of lore!

Hey Steve, an extra shot will keep you regular!

WTF- no

warm Geritol?

Please Lord, allow me to thaw and be able to walk again!

Holy Shit – Who’s idea was it to be out spanking golf balls in October on this frozen tundra!?!?

All-American Doug Baldwin cajoles his ball from the sand – kinda sounds like Spring Break on the beach, eh?

great golfer!

Biteth me!

Let’s pretend I am from Nationals – so YOU buy me

beer!

Apparently Mike Vance ’85 prefers private dining in the sunshine when

temps are in the 30s.

Historically, it has always been easy to

catch Kinch Donithan ’84 in a pickle, this rare

photo-op found the pickle IN Kinch

Donithan!
