What is Ralph's attitude toward Piggy in the first chapter?
Initially Ralph viewed Piggy as an uninvited and unwanted intrusion on his pleasure at finding himself on a tropical island. Ralph walked off when Piggy was forced to asnwer a call of nature, he didn't wait for the fat boy. Ralph didn't ask Piggy what his name was, probably because he wasn't in the slightest bit interested. Ralph probably felt that he had nothing in common with a fat asthmatic boy who wore a greasy wind-breaker, dropped letters from his words and who didn't know how to swim. Gradually however Ralph's attitude to Piggy began to change. When Ralph found the conch in the lagoon it was Piggy who identified it and told him that it could be blown. Piggy also suggested calling the rest of the boys on the island. Over the course of the book Piggy was constantly on hand to remind Ralph, when he lost track of what he was saying probably due to Petit Mal epilsepsy. Piggy was the voice of reason who suggested lighting a signal fire on the beach when it seemed that the beast was preventing the boys from relighting the fire on the mountain. Slowly Ralph's attitude changed from indifference, through a period where he simply made use of Piggy's abilities, to companionship and finally to the realisation that Piggy had been his friend.

Why does Jack commit toward Piggy?
If you are asking "Why did Jack hit Piggy?" The answer is that Jack was elated from having just successfully hunted a pig for the first time. He felt on top of the world, he felt that he had proved his skill and ability before his hunters. Then his self congratulations had been brought tumbling about his ears when Ralph told all the boys that they missed the opportunity of being rescued because the fire had been allowed to go out. This was a direct result of Jack 'needing' the two boys who should have been on fire duty to join his hunt. While Jack could grudgingly accept criticism from Ralph, who was bigger than himself and also the elected leader, when Piggy also spoke out against him it was a step to much. Jack could not accept losing face before his hunters by allowing a fat and unpopular boy to verbally chastise him without response. So, Jack punched him. Piggy was an easy target who was unlikely to fight back and who was unlikely to attract too much support. Jack was therefore able to unleash his anger and also the frustration he felt towards Ralph but which he was unable to express in that direction.
