Fire-relief effort questions
There were a couple questions the other day about the Kings' donation-drive effort, which starts tomorrow night and continues at every home game through Nov. 10.
1) For those who wish to donate with checks instead of cash, checks can be made out to the Salvation Army, with ``The Salvation Army's disaster relief efforts'' written in the memo section.
2) Jerseys worn by players during the Nov. 10 game -- which will include a special patch honoring Southern California firefighters -- will be auctioned off at Staples Center after that game.

I'm pretty sure no one will be able to fit "The Salvation Army's disaster relief efforts" in their memo line. I couldn't even get that in the To: line.
