Oil Bowl profits split by Texas Oklahoma charities
Wichita Falls charities share fourteen thousand dollars from the Shrine Oil Bowl game held last September. Three Wichita and Oklahoma groups divide the profits equally with 3000 going to Cerebral palsy treatment officials and an additional 38000 earmarked for polio and crippled children. A thousand went to the School of Listening Eyes. The scheme may end Shrine Bowl giving as the Texas Interscholastic League bars the Midwest game at Wichita Falls unless Midwest accepts TIL rules.
