"We had consistency across the board and that's what coach (Bob) O'Billovich has been talking about all year," said Toronto defensive back Reggie Pleasant after the Argos thumped the Rough Riders 49-21 Monday afternoon.

The Rough Riders, 2-12. committed six turnovers, including two interceptions and a fumble recovery for a touchdown by Pleasant, and watched their playoff aspirations disappear. The Rough Riders watched three turnovers in five minutes converted into 22 Toronto points and a 25-11 halftime disadvantage. "We haven't got the ability to come back yet." said Ottawa running back Chris Skinner, whose fumble led to a two-yard touchdown run by Gill Fenerty to give the Argos an 11-4 lead early in the second quarter. Toronto, 6-8, won its second straight game with its largest offensive output of the season to clinch third place in the Canadian Football League's East Division.

"It was too much reminiscent of all the games we've seen the Eskimos win on film," said Bomber coach Mike Riley. "When defences have to play a long time against them they eventually get worn out. "We didn't take advantage of the opportunities early on offence.

We threw some interceptions that resulted in them getting the ball after we'd had good field position." Salisbury, who also had a dismal outing the week before in a loss to Toronto, completed seven of 30 passes for 81 yards, including two interceptions and one touchdown. He could not be found in the Bomber dressing room after the game. Riley came to his quarterbacks' defence when he said at least one of the interceptions was the result of a blown pass route.

"We're really in a position now where we can settle down and play some good football," said Eskimo quarterback Tracy Ham, who threw for two touchdown passes and rushed for another. "We don't have to worry about winning another ball game and clinching first place or doing this or clinching that. "It's sealed and delivered now and they can start selling tickets because we know where it's going to be at."

Kelowna's Richard won the Ladies' Curling Classic on Monday, scoring an 8-4 victory over Sandy Turner of Calgary. Richard won the bonspiel in 1980, and becomes the second two-time winner in the 12-year history of the event.

Marilyn Darte has also won twice. "We had only played two games this fall before we came here," said Richard, who will share the $6,000 cheque with third Penny Ryan, second Sandra Jenkins and lead Iris Nielson. Jenkins, of Edmonton, was subbing for Susan Auty, who is attending an Olympic tryout camp. This is also the second time Ryan won the Autumn Gold. She was with Ruby Sowinski's winning foursome in 1982.

Turner was champion in 1984, and she started as if this one was in the bag as well. She led 4-1 after three ends, but couldn't handle prosperity. Richard scored in each of the next six ends. "This was the first game we played on that sheet and it had some different runs and tricky spots," said Richard. "It took us five ends to figure it out." Richard began the bonspiel with two victories, but was dropped to the Event by Edmonton's Deb Shermack.

The Kelowna rink then won three in a row to qualify. In the championship draw, they defeated Darlene Ruuth of Loreburn, and Heather MacMillan of Saskatoon to reach the final. Turner had a more demanding trip. She lost two straight, and faced elimination four times before qualifying in Event. She then toppled the other qualifier.

Michelle Schneider of Regina, in the first championship game and Cathy Borst of Edmonton in the semifinal. Second place was worth $4,000 to the Turner rink, while MacMillan won the third-place final and collected $3,200. Borst was fourth and made $2,400. Susan Seitz, the only other Calgary skip to qualify, lost in the opening cash draw to MacMillan. Seitz, Ruuth, Schneider and Susan Lang of Regina each made $2,000.

Lidia Lahdory has absolutely no doubt about how much a Mercedes-Benz is worth.

It looks like nothing happened." This story is not to be construed as a guarantee that you could emerge from a similar accident as unscathed as Lidia Landory.

But it does appear that the rigorous safety engineering of Mercedes-Benz-including the Lidia Landary was en route to pick up her kids at school one day last June in the family Mercedes-Benz 300 E. Traffic was heavy but moving smoothly at almost 70 kmhr. Then, suddenly, a car darted out onto the highway and directly into Mrs. Landory's path. And before she could even react, the two cars collided.
