Barry Zon: Barry is another member of the J.P.C.M. ' s. He regales in tormenting Steve for French and Trig, homework. His passetemps favori is going to Andy ' s inner sanctum for homework horrors.

He dislikes people who stress their middle initial. His future will lead him in the ways of Dr. Kildare — BUT with a diploma from U. of T. Michael Wood: I won ' t repeat all that Mich said to me when I asked him about his past. However 1 will relate that a large amount of energy has been spent in en- lightening the great Greek scholar ' J.C.R. ' with pearls of wisdom .

We ' re all confident he ' ll succeed. Jerry Brioux: This is Jerry ' s first year at Oakwood. Previously attended St. Mike ' s. His main hobbies are cars, water-skiing, girls, and most of all, making money. He has his own car and boat and spends the summer week-ends at the family cottage water-skiing.
