The great Korchnoi was in Luxembourg for a simultaneous exhibition and the organising chess club from Beles (Belvaux) took the opportunity to hold a small international team tournament. No doubt Korchnoi won all his games — otherwise my source would surely have mentioned this — but the Swiss team around him was not strong enough to hold off the Anderlecht side. According to [1], the whole three-round tournament took place on August 15th, so some rapid tempo must have been used. The games were played in the gala hall of the municipality Beles. After the tournament, there was a dinner in hotel Acacia. I don’t know the individual results, but the team compositions were as follows:

1 Limbos, Paul
2 Jadoul, Michel 2240
3 Tonoli, José
4 Tonoli, Walter
5 Tonoli, Peter
