1 f IN THE DAY BY DAY STRUGGLE for'the acquisition of knowledge and the development of char- acter, it seemed to the students that Amherst was like a jungle, symbolic of life, with a chance to succeed or a chance to fail. We encountered many pitfalls and traps in our trek through the maze of fears and the undergrowth of confusion, and often through the help of our Jungle King and our Tribal Leaders We found the trails that led to the open plains in full View of success. We found that everyone is a trailbreaker who overcomes the almost in- surmountable obstacles and goes on with new courage and confidence to conquer the un- known. Each Amherst jungle dweller blazes his own trail. The trembling seventh grader enters with faltering steps. The wide-eyed freshman gets his first glimpse of the life ahead. The con- fident sophomore has hurdled a few obstacles along the trail. The complacent junior moves on with the assurance gained through past victories. The thoughtful, determined senior has emerged from the darkness of the jungle and is now standing on the edge of the bright clear- ing, confidently gazing into the future. However, his respite is but temporary, for there are many more jungles in the life ahead. ' Through patient instruction our teachers prepare us for the future. We are disciplined by being sent to detention. The gym, the swimming pool, and the special exercise rooms keep us physically fit. hlathematics, language, science, business, social studies, shop work, art, and music all round out our mental training. Let us learn from the reading of the recorded past one of the lessons of life in the jungle, the knowledge and skill gained in trampling the green undergrowth of school life will prove helpful in making progress through the tough tangle of the older and mightier obstacles that lie ahead in this confused world of today.
