Hi Vince yes I certainly do remember Mr.Parkes he was a very gentle man and took no pleasure in using the strap.However such was Maguires influence every teacher was obliged to use it wether they wanted to or not.
When I was in his class we all witnessed what was nothing only common assault by Maguire who beat the hell out of one lad who sniggered at him when he walked into the classroom in a pin striped suit and a top hat because it was Whit Monday morning and he was the chief marshal.Funny enough I bumped into the lad in question on one of my Wigan visits and his first comment was do you remember when Maguire beat the crap out of me on that morning.Memories eh !!!
