PER CURIAM:
The judgment of conviction of the appellant Francisco Aros-Gonzales is affirmed.
The judgment of conviction of the appellant Benito Flores-Diaz is reversed by reason of the insufficiency of the evidence to show knowledge on his part, either by direct evidence or presumptively, of the existence of marijuana hidden in the automobile; the matter is remanded with instructions to dismiss as to him.
