Earl Andrew: /* External links */
The '''1974 [[Scotties Tournament of Hearts|Canadian Ladies Curling Championship]]''', known as the '''[[Macdonald Tobacco|Macdonald]] Lassie''' for sponsorship reasons, [[Canada]]'s national women's [[curling]] championship was held February 24-28, 1974 in [[Victoria, British Columbia]].
The [[Emily Farnham (curler)|Emily Farnham]] rink, representing Saskatchewan won the event, the sixth straight title for that province. Saskatchewan went undefeated through the tournament, and clinched the title after the eighth draw, as no other team could catch up to them. The event capped a stellar season for the team, which won 120 out of 122 games, with one of their two losses coming against a men's team.<ref>http://bit.ly/2T2j7Np> It would be the only national championship appearance for Farnham.
The attendance for the week was 25,024.<ref>''Ottawa Citizen'', March 1, 1974, pg 19, "It's (?) Saskatchewan again"</ref>
