WILLIAM C. GEHRINGER Bill seemed most at home when roaming the basketball court, guarding the soccer goal, or hanging around first base. Although he was president of the Varsity Club, sports weren ' t his only interest. He served successfully as Class President during both his Junior and Senior years. We are sure he will be just as successful in whatever career he enters.
