Many strong players, like Rik Wostyn, Beyen, and Missiaen, were missing. In their absence, the relatively unknown Lannoy managed a hard-fought victory. [1] gives almost complete results which, together with final standings in [2], allowed me to reconstruct the crosstable.

Wanted

  • All the games.
  • Van Coillie’s first name.
