The Paddle, Cricket, & Me- R/L Experience

[RG_]

After looking at this again, two questions occurred to me:

So of these 45-50 kids, most or all of whom I assume that you knew more or less, how many were paddled by the coach that year? Was it only boys who got paddled? Did any of them tell you (or a group you were in) about the paddlings, how the coach went about it, whether they were good licks or not, and so on?

I sense a few more good true school paddling stories out of this class!

And it just occured to me that I'm not sure who it was that called you 'Cricket.' Was it the coach, or was it the boy who put one down your shirt?
