I "Military, Athletics, Love- But the greatest of these is Love." EONARD DORSEY KINSEY is his name, but to his hosts of friends both in the college and elsewhere, he is known as "Jake." "Jake" came to us from McDonogh in 1919. From that day on and for many years to come, his name will be remembered whenever one thinks of athletics at W. M. C. Not only did "Jake" win his Varsity letters in football, basketball, and baseball, the first year he was on the hill, and every year since then, but he was con- sidered a star in whatever sport he played, and by some writers whose authority is well recognized, as the most consistent all-around athlete that ever wore the Green and Gold. The student body showed just how much they thought of his work by awarding him the John Alexander Medal for the best all-around athlete, but his true worth will not be fully appreciated until next year, when the familiar form of "Jake" will no longer be seen on gridiron, court, or diamond, and the paper in giving an account of the, games will no longer say, "As usual Kinsey played his brand of game, and was the shining light for Western Maryland." As a student and as an officer of R. O. T. Corps he has proved himself to be one of those men whose numbers are few, and successes many-a "go getter." Fift'JI
