The plan proposes 37000 dollars from the state legislature to open part of the Dyche museum at the University of Kansas within a year. Thirty thousand seven hundred dollars would restore the building in 1939 40 and 10000 in 1940 41 to restore exhibits and lay groundwork for full reopening in about six to seven years. The budget may allow some general funds for immediate exhibit restoration, with aims to show wildlife cycles and global exhibits once complete. Dyche has been closed since 1932 for safety concerns and is expected to gradually reopen as work progresses. Edward Fitzgerald born March 1809.
