The crosstables come from [1]. The games from the major section come from[2]. The few games I have from the premier reserves come from [3] [4], [5], and [6]. The games from [6] were kindly sent to me by Mr. Sharpe, for which I am very grateful.
This was a very good edition for the Belgian chess federation. Colle played a rather nice tournament to finish second and Koltanowski scored his first international victory. For Soultanbeieff, this was – as far as I know – his first participation outside of Belgium since he moved there.
Wanted
- Some games from the premier reserves.
