One of the most notable symbols in Chapter 1 is the conch. The conch represents power and leadership. The power of the conch is illustrated when the boys decide on a chief and chose Ralph because he has possession of the conch. Also if you read some of the quotations about the effects the conch has when Ralph blows it, it is easy enough to support the idea that it is a symbol of power.
