Q TOWER Foreword O the students of Amherst, a typical day is likened to a menu of a full course dinner. Each individual makes a selection suited to his particular taste. There are those who are content with only snacks, there are those who do not eat well or the proper food and those who need treatment for indigestion, namely our failing students. However, most of us love to eat and eat well of the educational food served with such finesse, taste, and attraction by our faculty of waiters. Cf course we are not all connoisseurs of the best, but the students seem to know when they are satisfied. Our seventh and eighth graders may be compared to appetizers. Our freshman class is served soup which introduces them to their formal dinner. A healthful salad is presented to our sophomores. To the hungry juniors, we give our main course. The senior class is offered the dessert. We might call our post-graduates the after dinner mints. Anything added to the dinner by means of culture, background or enter- tainment is easily procured on our Amherst menu. The music department exhibits their skills in the provision of background music through singing, band, and orchestral selections. Dramatic organizations furnish varied enter- tainment. Students are thus enabled through education to carry on interesting topics of conversation to further the pleasant effects and digestion of their meal. Much of the seasoning of our dinner comes through the numerous extra- curricular activities in which our students participate. These all help to increase the Amherst appetites. May the theme of the 1950 Tower offer food for thought and memories of another year at Amherst Central High School. Stuff-Me THE Amherst menu is portrayed by our mythical character, the STUFF-ME. He typilies any student participating in classes and activi- ties during the school year. The STUFF-ME has grown fat on the food served by our educational staff. 4
