I'm not sure if it is a good Idea to redefine the init-method. When I have a look at http://jtf.acm.org/javadoc/student/acm/program/ConsoleProgram.html I would expect that you have implement only the run-method. Overriding init without calling super.init() Looks strange to me.

Maybe I would be better to derive from JApplet directly for your first steps in Applet programming.
