Edgar farmed the land until about 1974. Now he raises about 20 cattle and lets some friends in town keep seven mules on his land.
Now, most of Edgar's days are filled with trips to dorms, apartments, fraternities and drop boxes in Lawrence to collect papers to be recycled for the Boys' Club of Lawrence, 500 E. 23rd St.
Two years before his death in 1976, Bobby brought the boys' Club, an organization for boys ages 6-19, to Lawrence with the help of the Lawrence Javcees.
Edgar donates much of his time and energy every day to the paper drive that he and Bobby started in 1975. Once a month, Edgar sends about 21 tons of paper to Ottawa for recycling. He gets $30-$60 a ton for the paper, which he turns over to the Boys' Club.
The people who work with Edgar respect the man and his work, for which he has received several honors and awards.
Gary Larson, executive director of the boys' Club, said, "Edgar's like a modern-day hero. He's dedicated himself totally to other people. There aren't very many people like him. Him, everyone else comes first."
Larson said that Edgar had raised almost $7,000 for the boys' Club through the paper drive since it started. The money from the drive made it possible for the organization to pay off the mortgage on their building two years ago.
Larson said that about six times a year the Boys' Club held campouts on the Lee's land.
"He's also great with the boys," Larson said.

U.S. bankers may change foreign lending policies
WASHINGTON — Treasury Secretary James Baker announced yesterday that the United States next week would propose a key change in lending policies to the debtor countries of Latin America and elsewhere.
Top executives of chief New York banks and Federal Reserve Board Chairman Paul Volcker were given a briefing on the plan yesterday evening in a private meeting in Baker's office to which they were summoned with 30 hours' notice.
Baker confirmed the meeting was taking place as he spoke to business executives in a Washington hotel yesterday evening.
The meeting is being held as the debt problem shows signs of turning into an acute crisis again.
Baker, Volcker and some of the bank officials leave Wednesday for Seoul, South Korea, where the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund hold their 40th anniversary joint meeting.
The devastating earthquake last week added a new layer of uncertainty to Mexico's problems although some analysts say it could clear the way for disaster credit.
The current case-by-case debt rescheduling strategy "has been successful in many respects but it has worked now for three years and we need to build upon it," Baker told members of the American Business Conference, made up of executives of high- growth companies.
Baker said he thought it was important to talk to some leading American bankers about the plans before anything surfaced because it would clearly involve them.

hinted that they would like the World Bank to co-finance some of the new loans, guaranteeing new credit extended by banks in the United States and elsewhere.

"I have every respect for the Endowment Association in terms of its importance to the University." I feel very strongly about this issue.
A large number of constituents in Branson's district work at the University, she said.
Jane Ungerman, Lawrence senior and a member of the KU Committee on South Africa, a group that wants the Endowment Association to divest, said of Branson's letter, "I think it's great that she's done that. I would be happy to hear that it came out in our favor."

toward having a quality athletic program," Easley said.
He said the student body president was responsible for appointing two of the student members to the KUAC board. The the third is elected from the University Affairs Committee of the Student Senate, he said.
The student body president has the option of appointing himself or someone else to the board, Easley said.
Easley appointed Hanna and himself. Fevurly was elected by the committee.
Easley said, "The philosophy behind my appointment of myself and William Hanna was that I would be representing the entire student body and that William would specifically represent the Student Senate.
Anthony Redwood, KUAC board chairman, said 18 members were on the board. In compliance with KUAC bylaws, six are full-time faculty, five
are non-faculty alumni and three are students.
Redwood said the KUAC board functioned in many of the same ways that the board of directors of a private corporation did, with at least one important difference.
"Under NCAA rules, the ultimate responsibility for the University's athletic program lies with the chancellor," he said. "Therefore, the board is accountable to the chancellor."
Easley, Hanna and Fevurly each serve on at least one of the four KUAC board committees. Easley serves on the Executive and Long Range Planning committees. Hanna
serves on the Academic Committee. Fevurly serves on the Finance Committee.
"It's probably the most important source of communication." Fevrily said. "I don't think most students I've talked to even realized the Athletic Department is run by a corporation until I told them."
Feverly said he thought student representation on the board was important for the Athletic Department and students.
Hanna said his goal as a member of the board was to help resolve the Athletic Department's problems with academic ineligibility.
Hanna said he thought it was essential that the variety of student concerns be presented by him and the other student board members.
"I think it's apparent that there is some work that needs to be done in this area," he said.
Bombs
Continued from p.1
Residents of the city said they heard one big explosion and four lesser blasts. Sirens screamed throughout the city as casualties were ferried to hospitals.
Israel has bombed guerrilla bases in neighboring Lebanon 13 times this year, but it was the first time Israel had struck any other country since June 7, 1981, when Israeli warplanes bombed an Iraqi nuclear reactor near Baghdad. Israel also mounted the airborne mission in 1976 and rescued hostages held at Entebbe airport in Uganda.
Only rubble remained of three seaside villas used as headquarters by the PLO. Scraps of twisted iron and chunks of stone were thrown for hundreds of yards by the force of the explosions. Neighboring buildings were untouched.
The Israeli army in Jerusalem confirmed its jets attacked the PLO base and said all returned safely.
Israel blamed Force 17 for the murder on Yom Kippur on Sept. 25 of two men and a woman aboard an Israel yacht anchored in the harbor at Larnaca, Cyprus, by three gunmen who said they were fighting for the Palestinian cause.
In Washington, President Reagan's chief spokesman, Larry Speakes, said the bombing appeared to be "a legitimate response" to terrorism and was consistent with U.S. policy.
"We will neither forgive nor forget the Larnaca affair," Israeli Prime Minister Shimon Peres said in a speech in Tel Aviv almost at the moment of the Tunis attack.
