The Senoritas Joyita and Mara villa are sisters. They look about Is but I suspect they are nudging 20. Maravilla is slightly taller, which brings her about five-feet-tw She has a ccuntenance that is highlight- cd by pair of the most amazing dimples you ever saw. Joyita is per hapS a year younger, barely reaches five feet in height, and has an en- gaing roguishness that shimmers thrcugher personality like moon- light in wine
 I should like at this point to give an adequate description of their eyes, but being no poet, can only say that they are not just show-girl eyes. It is true they use mascara, and it is equally true that they use all the tricks Of theatrical makeup designed to make little girls what they aren't.

Two Charming
 Mexican Cuties

TheyHave that Tantalizing, What You Call It, that
 Goes Over Big
By GEORGE TUCKER

NEW YORK. July 27-Wijh no intentions of sighting the fair cuties now displaying their charms on Broadway I must come out with the flat statement that two little Mexican girls have more explosive "zing" than any showgirls in New York.
 They are Joyita and Marayilla, and you may have seen them If you are partial to Mexican mo7'iee For that is where they began their careers D efore Benlto Collaua, yielding more of that accustomed legerdemain, rounded them up in Mexico City and carted them off to his Greenwich Village rendez- vous, Fl Chico. He must have chlorOformod those theatrical and nightclub operators down there to get them out of town with signed contracts
 Permit me then to be your go- between, since they speak no Eng fish and your correspondent knows easily a dozen words in Spanish Spoken, to be sure, with some trace of a southern accent, but Spanish nevertheless, and here we go.

BuU there IS difference. Si, SenOr there is a vast difference, but you will have to see for yourself to understand what I mean.
 Apparently they have a thousand costumes, for I never have seen them wear the same dresses twice. But usually they are adorned with large Mexican sombreros, and they come walking out singing joyously and Justify, songs of the Mexican rancheros.
 If you are a pretty girl and are visiting Fl Chico, be not surprised at anything which may happen to your escort. For they take great delight in teasing their sister femmes by showering attention on attendant swains. It makes for good fun, and that after all is what you go to nightclubs for

C UBAN ROOKIE
HURLER PROVES
STAR OF GR|FFS

Into the dim recesses Of Griffith
Stadium where, Of late, the Mats
skidded into the abysmal darkness
of the second division, a new light
flared up yesterday in the form
of Rene Montegudo, a little Cuban
with black, flashing eyes, quick
grni and a quaint way of speaking
reverse English.
He beat the Red Sox, rs. He
struck out nine and injected his
whiffs into the general scheme
when whiffs were needed most. He
reserved room for himself in the
Mats spring training quarters. He
won over a couple of hardened
skepticS named Bucky Harris and
Clark Griffith. He drew the ad-
miration Of the enemy-the Red
Sox.
Maybe Rene Montegudo will be
another Of the late-in-the-year
whizzes and maybe, like the plump
army that has preceded him, he'll
fade as quickly. And then, maybe
not.
NINE STRIKE.OUTS
Somehow you get lock-jaw when
you try to laugh off nine strike
outs.
Montegudo is a little cuss of 5
feet 5 inches. He weighs 100, for
he's thick chested, well muscled
and heavily underslung. He likes
to drink beer and smoke ciga.
rettes, but he doesn't overindu1ge
in either.
"Leetle beet OF bad" philoso-
phizes Rene. "eez good. Bot
whole lot Of bad, she eez bad"
In Cuba. Rene was schooled by
Adolph Luque, the former National
League pitcher, and he says Luque
schooled him in the tricks of the
trade, the change Of pace, the art
of holding a man on first base. If
you were among the small con.
gregation yesterday at the sta
dium, you may have taken note
the Boston base-runnerS took no
liberties off first base. You may
have noticed the way they ran
back to the bag even when he let
the ball go plateward, for Monte
guido has a peculiar jerk to his de-
livery which keeps the base-run-
ners in doubt.
| CAN'T MISS
According to Joe Krakauskas,
the Mats lefthander who knows
Rene well, Montegudo can't miss.
He'll make the grade" Joe
said yesterday. "Nobody's got
any better control than that kid.
He throws bull's-eyes. His fast
ball sneaks UP on 'em. takes off
as it nearS the plate. And you
don't see a better curve ball
than his any place"
Sunday, Montegudo will pitch
against the Yankees at Griffith
lStadium. So you don't have to
take it from us.
Cecil Travis drove over the wiu-
ming runs with a single in the
eighth inning after Boston had
come from behind to knot the
count. Travis had an edge for the
day on Foxx, with whom he is
, fighting for the lead of the league
in hitting, getting three blows to
one for the Boston star.
