Sidelines

The Motor Vehicle Division of the Arizona Department of Transportation and the Arizona Alumni Association are teaming up for the license plate sale. There will be a MVD tent on the Mall, just west of Campbell Ave., selling the plates from 1 to 6 p.m..

Anyone interested in purchasing a "Wildcat" plate needs to bring a current vehicle registration and a check or money order for $25 made out to MVD.

Of the $25 pricetage, $17 of it will benefit the University of Arizona Alumni Association Scholarship Fund.

It is not a requirement to be an alumnus to purchase a plate.
