A good victory for the Belgian team, although it must be admitted that some good French players were missing. I found the results and a few games in [1]. [1] does not give the results on the junior board, probably because it didn’t count for the official match. That was added from [2], which was kindly sent to me by Mr. Siebenhaar. There was probably also two women competing – as was the case in the previous and later editions – but I don’t know these results and they didn’t count to the official final result. Apparently, grandmaster Kotov arbitrated the games Rooze-Boutteville and De Bruycker-Benoît from the second round.
Wanted
- Almost all games.
- Did Francis or Pierre Meinsohn play?
