World Chess Championship (Women)
1927-39 Title Tournaments

Clippings from 'International Championship Chess: A complete record of FIDE events' by B.M. Kazic (Batsford, 1974, p.259-263).

Notes for the 1939 PGN:
Subject: Buenos Aires 1939
From: "A.W.N."

Now, back to Buenos Aires 39. I created a crosstable in CB, from the PGN games, to compare with the only source I have (The book "International Championship Chess" by B.M.Kazic - page 263). Surprise, the book is wrong! It gives:

  • 6. Lauberte ... 12.5 points, but the correct is 12.0 (check the sum)
  • Trepat 0:0 Stoefels, should be 1/2-1/2, so the points are incorrect too!: Trepat 7.5, Stoeffels 6.5; should be: Trepat 8.0, Stoeffels 7.0
  • Raclauskiene 1:1 Lougheed , the correct is 1:0, but now the points are correct : Reclauskiene 3.5 Lougheed 2.0 (ok!)
  • And Kazic gives Janecek instead of B. Janeckova.

Do you have another source?
