According to [2], this match was played in ‘t Putje, where the Brugse SK played. [1] gives the match table, [2] gives one (rather nice) game. Belgium managed to score a decent victory, but the French team was admittedly quite weak.

Alongside the official match, there was also the traditional match between Flanders and North of France. Here, the Flemish top was quite strong, which led to a resounding victory on the first boards.

Wanted

  • All but one game.
  • Kemp’s first name.
