Rounds 2,4,5, and 8 appear to be lost forever. In September of 1953, candidate master Mikhail Tal played in the <USSR Republics Team Championship> in Leningrad. On 2d board for Latvia, he scored +3 -1 =3. Latvia finished 4th, behind Leningrad, RSFSR and Moscow, ahead of Ukraine, Georgia, Belarus and Estonia. Tal achieved his final master norm in this event, but so did Janis Klavins, who had scored better for Latvia on 3d board. Klavins was awarded the master title, but Tal was not.[1 ] Tal had to wait until 1954 for a chance to play a 14-round master qualification match against Vladimir Saigin. In the summer of 1954, Tal beat Saigin +4 -2 =8 in Riga.[2 ] Although he should have received the Soviet master title at this point, in his autobiography Tal maintains that he was not actually awarded the title until after he played in the <USSR Clubs Team Championship 1954>, which was held 3-17 September in Riga: "The year (1954) was concluded at home, in Riga, by the Team Championship of the Country, only this time for adults. Here for the first time I won against a Grandmaster, the USSR champion Yuri Averbakh. After this, still a candidate master, I drew a couple of games, and then received notification that I was a master."[3 ] Yuri Averbakh, however, says this story is a myth, and that Tal was indeed awarded the master title shortly after his match with Saigin. Averbakh served on the "Qualification Committee" that evaluated Tal's result against Saigin.[4 ] [1 Mikhail Tal, "The Life and Games of Mikhail Tal," p.26; http://al20102007.narod.ru/team_ch/...

Apsenieks, behind S. Flohr, G. Stahlberg, L. Szabo and others, scoring +5-9=1> In the concurrent Latvian Championship scoring, ---- Vladimir Petrov (kibitz #656) a subset of this Kemeri 1939 tournament was in fact the Final of this Championship. Latvian Wikipedia explains [my interpretation of the English translation]: The previous Champion (Petrovs) plus the top 3 in each group (Bezrucko, Hasenfuss, Ozols from Group 1; and Apsenieks, Melngailis, Dreibergs from Group 2) qualified for this Final, which consisted of the best score of these 7 among themselves within this Kemeri 1939 event. [Three other Latvians (Feigins, Koblencs, Solmanis) were also later admitted to this tournament, but were not qualified for this Final.] From the crosstable for Kemeri-Riga 1939, I work out the scores of these 7 against each other to be (out of 6): Petrovs 4.5 Dreibergs 4.0 Hasenfuss 3.5 Melngailis 3.5 Apsenieks 3.0 Bezrucko 2.0 Ozols 0.5 Thus Petrovs became the 1938/9 Latvian Champion. --- Vladimir Petrov (kibitz #659) Rigasche Rundschau, 7 February 1939 says something like: "The fight for the [1938/9 Latvian] championship will take place at the end of February in a final tournament. Based on the results of the tournament just ended, the following players will be admitted to the finals: Fr. Apscheneeks, Hasenfuss, Besrutschko, Osols, Melngailis and Dreibergs. In addition there is Grandmaster W. Petrow, as well as 2-3 foreign champions." Looks like this intended end-February tournament morphed into being Kemeri-Riga 1939. --- Vladimir Petrov (kibitz #680) "The title of Latvia champion was gained by Petrov, since Feigin, as not gaining the place into the final group, was allowed to participate in the tournament without rights for the title of champion." "Segodnia", March 21, 1939, p. 5. --- Vladimir Petrov (kibitz #686) Grand master W. Petrow at 8 place, who was heavily revised, did not really win, but still successfully defended the title of champion of Latvia; Feigin was out of the question because he had not reached the final in the pre-tournament.

Total 0.5 points. --- Vladimir Petrov (kibitz #696) <jessicafischerqueen> Re your comment on Latvian Wikipedia being an excellent resource on Latvian Chess Championships: Yes, it does look like it, and I have copied all this material out. However, it looks as though it does seem to be needed to be treated with a note of caution: It seems to have the crosstable of group 1 of the 1938/9 Congress wrong! It gives Ozols as having 8.5 points and Silins as having 6 points. All the other sources that I have found that have crosstables for this event ("Saha Maksla" magazine, 15 Jan 1939, Page 4 [very nice item]; "Stasti un Romani", 7 Jan 1939, Page 12; "Krustamikla Sahs Bridzs", 7 Jan 1939, Page 12; Di Felice 1936-1940, Page 222) give Ozols as having 9 points, and Silins as having 5.5 (And "Kurzemes Vards" 3 Jan 1939, which just gives a listing, but no crosstable, has Ozols with 9 points, but Silins with 6!) [Side note: "Saha Maksla" and "Kurzemes Vards" give the "A. Kalnins" as being "Arn. [Arnoldu] Kalnins". Di Felice has him as a different player, "Arvids Kalnins". I think Di Felice has only seen "A. Kalnins" and has wrongly assumed it is Arvids. He does the same thing in his crosstable for the 1932 Riga Championship as well (and possibly elsewhere). In general, I find Di Felice rather unreliable (as you also have suggested) and think any of his material used needs to be corroborated if possible (as you also have indicated), especially when he doesn't give a source.] One other curiosity with this Championship is Di Felice giving a playoff Hasenfuss-Bezrucko +1-0=3. [I confirmed this: "Stasti un Romani", 4 March 1939, Page 23 gives this, with Hasenfuss winning the first game.] I was trying to understand why these two needed a playoff when both had already qualified for the Final. But it seems there was a separate Congress Championship to play for as well - winner of Group 1 to play winner of Group 2 for this. So this match was to establish the winner of Group 1. Winner of group 2 was Melngailis as Apsenieks was not eligible as a former winner. "Rigasche Rundschau", 29 April 1939, Page 18 says the Hasenfuss-Melngailis match was postponed until the autumn. I didn't find it then on a casual search, but suspect it was never played because World War Two broke out then. Also, Hasenfuss was a German Balt, so probably moved to Germany in November/December 1939 under Hitler's "heim ins Reich" program, though it could have been later. --------------- Vladimir Petrov (kibitz #700) Master Class recognized to Fr. Arsenieks, T. Bergs, M. Feigins, E. Krumins, V. Petrovs, and Old Master K. Betins, the 7th master will be determined by result of T. Melngailis - V. Hasenfuss match. "Rīts", December 14, 1939, p. 16 and "Mazpulks", January 15, 1940, p. 34 Vladimir Petrov (kibitz #760) The CM title for chess players was introduced in USSR in 1935 when Unified All-Union Sports Classification was created. --- Vladimir Petrov (kibitz #702) <hemy> Thanks for your explanation regarding Latvian masters and the follow-up. This clarifies things considerably. One of the great things about following this thread is not only do you learn a lot about Petrovs, but also about Latvian chess in general in that period. I checked Di Felice, but did not find a Hasenfuss - Melngailis match there in 1940 or afterwards. --------------- Vladimir Petrov (kibitz #762) <A match between <T. Melngailis and Hassenfus> for the title of Latvian master> The match didn't take place. No one of them received Latvian master title. In Riga championship 1944, last and unfinished by Hasenfuss tournament, he was introduced as Dr. Hazenfuss unlike Teodors Bergs, who was presented as a "meistar".

Zvirbulis vs T Melngailis, 1948 ################################## <Notes> #################### Tenis Melngailis (kibitz #5) Mikhail Beilin about the Latvian period of his life, from http://ruchess.ru/persons_of_day/be... "... I came to Riga, being a candidate master (CM), - the title for the present time is not says to much, but at that time CM title had only two players in Latvia - Vilis Mezhgailis and Tenis Melngailis. The only master was Alex Koblenc. ... the names of my colleges translation to Russian: Mezhgailis - a forest cock, and Melngailis - a black cock. Senior Lieutenant Mezhgailis had with the cock nothing in common. It was a restrained tall strong man, silent and affable. He fought in the ranks of the Latvian division and hated the fascists. And he played in a solid positional style. Melngailis was temperamental, he liked to talk, he willingly talked in Russian, although he did not speak very fluently. The German occupation survived in Latvia, but did not spread its political views. At the board these candidates were often met, although they did not feel sympathy for each other." 9 games, 1936-1939 Teodors Bergs Games https://lv.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teodo... http://al20102007.narod.ru/nat_tour... http://al20102007.narod.ru/ch_repub... http://al20102007.narod.ru/ch_repub... <Photographs> http://www.periodika.lv/periodika2-... http://www.periodika.lv/periodika2-... ############################## <Riga 1934> Match game v Apsenieks? http://www.periodika.lv/#searchResu...
