Gilpin, (Staff Advisor), and R. W. Sheridan. The first number on the program was an excellent pro- duction of Rubra Cuculia, a clever adaption of the favor- ite nursery tale Little Red Riding Hood presented in an amusing and witty Latin ver- sion. The perfect pronuncia- tion, clear enunciation, and natural acting of the w.ell dir- ected cast reflected much cre- dit on the producer, R. W. Sheridan.
