Bear Courting in Mexican Plaza Turns Dangerous
In a Southern Mexican city a North American man and his friend watch a Mexican chica, Luisa Miler, pass by in a plaza, pursuing “playing bear” courtship. After a sequence of windows, notes, and a balcony glimpse, Owens tries a bold Spanish note, learns a makeshift telephone, and narrowly survives an attempted ambush by Luisa’s father’s retainers. He is rescued by the jefe and learns Luisa is educated in the United States, inviting him to return for more lessons and romance.
