Among the prefects, doubts grew. John McCaughey (1964) refused to be party to a caning, and Hamish Ewing (1967), present at one, was horrified. Finlay Macrae (Captain 1967) feels he caned ‘rather gingerly’. Andy Mackay’s boarding house captain ‘was trying to hit my backside but I bet he couldn’t hit a par 3 to save himself. I have cuts at the back of my knees and along my back by the time he finished. Captains, John Field and Graeme Blanch, caned no-one but, but caning resumed in 1970 and 1971.
