Maciek Trzebiatowski (pronounced Maw-check Chub-a-tess-key) is better known as Chub to his friends.  Not that he has very many.  It is pretty much just Moby now.  But everyone certainly knows Chub.  There aren't many bald immigrants in the middle school.  He used to be best friends with the Arch back in 2nd grade but they are now enemies.  And Chub will do any mean trick he can think of to bring the Arch down.  When the Arch becomes captain of the track team and class president, the rivalry intensifies.
