DTH Editor Bill See FACULTY, page U Money Unimportant to 'Biggest Kick Says Ed Lanier, Bitsy Student Aid Director By . Arnold Schulman "No' said Edwin S. Lanier, peer ing over the glasses which rested on his nose, "there's nothing interesting about me, but there certainly is about what I'm doing. The way I look at it, I'm touching the stream of human life right now at its most interesting point." His official titles are Director of Student Aid Office and Director of Central Records Office. Between the two he manages to be kept busier than the mythical server of ice water in the lower regions, and about as Sard to find. However, as he puts it, "There couldn't be two jobs any more opposite in nature." Mind A Mechanism On the one "hand, with the Record Office, his mind becomes a mechan ism, a calculator of figures, an instru ment to record the mass of innum erable details and statistics that comes from keeping a complete record of -every student at the University, but then on the other hand, this is balanced by working solely with the individual through the Student Aid Office. It is the latter of these jobs that furnishes him with the bulk of his enjoyment. "If I was just working for the money," he continued, "I'm sure that there would be some other Rene Hardre To Address French House Professor Rene Marde of the French Department of Woman's College, Greensboro, will speak on the Free French movement at a special cele bration commemorating the founding of the movement, to be held this even ing at 7 p. m. at the French House, operating in the Alpha Delta Pi sor ority house.

There will be 52 class periods during the week;, conducted by experts. Him Is In. Working sort of work that would be a lot less strenuous and perhaps more pront able, but I've never once regretted taking this job, and I've been at it more than sixteen 'years. What I get the biggest kick odt of is 'working with and for people, especially young people."

Edwin, Jr. He had meanwhile married Nancy Herndon, who worked in the office of President. Graham, and now they have two children, a girl aged five, and Edwin, Jr., who is three months old, and the cause for almost as much sleeplessness as his daytime job. "But there is just one thing," he cautioned. "There are so many others doing just as much if not more than I am, but they just don't get as much notice because I'm the one that the fellows have to see. What I want to get across is that when somebody gets a loan through my office, it's not my doing. I just happen to be in a position that makes me look instrumental." 8641 NUMBER 2 S The plan was to eret seve: A temno- I rary structures erected to house single students. They would be wooden houses in barrack style tohich have been used near overcrowded war plants.
