There are many occurrences in the athletic- program during the school year at Amherst County High. Go! Fight! Win! is the cry heard in the gymnasium by the cheerleaders and fans in leading the Lancers to a victory. There is also the ri alry which becomes keener and keener as each team tries ' aliantly to win. After school has been dismissed at the end of a long day, one could witness the many prac- tice sessions of the ' arious teams in their pursuit of perfection. All of these and man ’ more breathtaking moments lend an air of e.xcitement and into.xication to the athletic- scenes at Amherst County High.

Timeless Years of Learning . The phases of our school life at A.C.H.S. are intermingled with the knowledge gained in the classrooms and the many extra cur- ricular activities which are offered. Our stud- ies enrich and enlarge the scope of our knowledge while our many activities help to give direction and meaning to our work in society. The knowledge that we have ob- tained and the many activities conducted on our campus will stand out as vivid panto- mimic scenes in our journey across the stage of our high school life.
