The above crosstables were pieced together from the final standings as given in [1] and partial results given in [2]. The games I have come from [1] and [3]-[6]. [2] announces Mollekens only two days before the start of the tournament, but he was replaced by Buysschaert. I do not know what caused this change. After his victories in Brussels, Teplice-Šanov and twice Hilversum this was already the fifth tournament victory for O’Kelly, and that’s not counting two matches, one against Lemaire and one against Rose, as well as a 1½-½ win against van Scheltinga on first board in the match between Belgium and The Netherlands
