The 1st Defendant was not liable because the evidence established consensual horseplay without recklessness or a very high degree of carelessness and thus no actionable negligence or battery; the School was not liable because it had established an appropriate system of patrol which, on the evidence, was being operated and the plaintiff did not prove a breach of system or causation that a proper patrol would have prevented the injury; the plaintiff could rely on the School's pleaded factual case without unfairness.
