Nov 21st, 1951: "Rough Riders Get Seven Majors To Wallop Sarnia Imperials, 43-17"

This third consecutive Rough Riders game summary concludes that team's run through the 1951 playoffs. It's nice to get an unusual opponent in the form of the Sarnia Imperials.

The championship game coverage, against Saskatchewan, has been included on the Grey Cup page for some time. You can click on the page link under the top banner.

Nov 17th, 1951: "One More Hurdle For Riders to Grey Cup Final"

We flip to the Ottawa Journal for the summary of the second game in the two-game series against Hamilton for the IRFU (Big Four) championship. The image at the bottom is from the Citizen of the same date, however.  






Nov. 14th, 1951: "Riders' Last Quarter Rally Results in 10-Point Lead"

The summary below is for the first of two games in a series to win the IRFU title. Game two will hopefully be added later on today.
