Hmm <Andrew Soltis'> information can't be correct on the round numbers.

It can't be the 9th round that ended the event, because according to the crosstables (rusbase; Di Felice) no player played more than 6 rounds. Some played only 4 or 6 rounds: http://al20102007.narod.ru/ch_urs/1...

Perhaps <Soltis> just typed in the incorrect finishing round numbers? Or possibly the "9th round" really did end the event, and the results have not been preserved? But if a round was played every day, starting from June 15, then there isn't enough time for 9 rounds to have been played before June 23. Soltis says the last "scheduled round" was round 10, not round 9.

<hemy> I think this is Pēteris Šadurskis mentioned in your post about <Rostov on Don 1941>? Vladimir Petrov (kibitz #310)

P Schadurski

One of his correspondence games, and photos of him, are published in <Encyclopedia of Latvian Chessplayers. Volume II - 1900-2000. L to Z>

He was originally supposed to enter the event, as your source suggests: <"A. Koblenz, V. Petrov and P. Šadurskis will represent Latvian Soviet Republic in the semifinal of 13th Soviet Union chess championship in Rostov-on-Don." ("Sarkanais Sports", May 24, 1941, p. 3) >

He does not appear in the crosstable, so maybe for some reason he couldn't make the trip, or he was not allowed entry into the tournament?

<hemy> On <Kaunas 1941> (20-22 April) Baltic Soviet Republics Championship. This was a team match tournament between Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia. A. Koblents played first board for Latvia. On second board, <Petrovs scored +0-0=1 against V. Mikenas (Lithuania)> and <+1-0=0 against F. Kibbermann (Estonia)>. Latvia won the match with 7.5/12, ahead of Lithuania (7/10) and Estonia (3.5/12). [ "Atpūta", May 23, 1941, p.29; "Sarkanais Sports"; April 24, 1941, p. 3 http://al20102007.narod.ru/match_tm... ]

The game score downloaded from Rusbase has more moves than the game score you supplied from Atpūta.

Which score do you think we should submit to cg.com?

"Sarkanais Sport", May 24, 1941, p. 3:

"A. Koblenz, V. Petrov and P. Šadurskis will represent Latvian Soviet Republic in the semifinal of 13th Soviet Union (chess) championship in Rostov-on-Don."

The header of this article, that was not translated by me, would clarify about P. Šadurskis:
"USSR chess and checker championships semifinals".

I inserted 'chess' in <13th Soviet Union chess championship> because it was 13th chess championship. It couldn't be a 13th checkers championship.

Today I found a blog of A. Bushkov, author of the book "Chess of Rostov (Rostov-on-Don)". There is no information about the printed version, but all the chapters of this project are published.

The article "Semifinal of XIII USSR Championship (1941) included in chapter 5. http://www.viskra.ru/2018/12/chapte...

I will translate some details from this article.

"64-Шахматное Обозрение" ("64-Chess review"), No. 25, June 18, 1941:

"OPENING

ROSTOV-ON-DON. (Our special corr.).
... On Saturday, June 14, was held organizational meeting of participants. It was opened by the chairman of the regional committee on physical education and sports, Comrade Konovalov.

The Rostov semi-final included four separate tournaments (groups), with 11 participants in each. Two winners from each group will reached the final, scheduled for August. In addition to the “magnificent eight” of the Rostov “spill”, the following were invited personally: Absolute Champion of the USSR, grandmaster M. Botvinnik, grandmasters: I. Bondarevsky, P. Keres, A. Kotov, G. Levenfish, A. Lilienthal, V. Smyslov and the Champion of Ukraine master I. Boleslavsky.

Millions of chess lovers followed the course of the Rostov tournament with great interest. In this they were assisted by numerous correspondents of central and local publications. One of them was a competitor, a Red Army soldier, master Mark Stolberg, the favorite of Rostovites, a columnist of the Rostov-on-Don youth newspaper "Большевистская смена" ("Bolshevik Shift").

Reports of Stolberg in the newspapers from June 17th, 19th and 22nd.

SEMI-FINALS OF SOVIET UNION CHESS AND CHECKERS CHAMPIONSHIPS

On June 15, at 5.30 pm, the semi-final competitions at the USSR Championship in Chess began at the Rostov Tabachnik Club. The game taking place in two large tournament halls. The most interesting meetings are shown on special boards installed on the stage and in the halls.

By 9 o'clock in the evening, the Alatortsev-Turn party is the first in the tournament. The champion of the Estonian SSR, Thurn, could not oppose anything to the consistent game of the Moscow master. White's pressure increased with each move, and Black’s simple tactical plans were easily reflected. Threatened with the loss of the queen, Thurn was forced to surrender.

Interestingly proceeded the party of two masters - Panov and Ragozin. Ragozin put a lot of pressure on White’s position, but in time trouble he messed up and lost.

Gerstenfeld, who carelessly weakened his king side, lost to Tolush, whose style captivates with its freshness and spontaneity.

Mikenas won against Duz-Khotimirsky, who inaccurately played the Old Indian game.

Kan in good style won against the champion of Kiev Goldenov. Koblenz came under strong attack and lost to Kopaev. The representative of Rostov Golovko got better position in the opening with Lisitsyn. However, Black's precise defense equalized the odds; the result is a draw.

Also ended in a draw games: Rabinovich-Kasparyan; Kaiev-Schneideman; Bronstein-Abrahamyan; Belavenets-Chekhover; Vistaneckis-Dubinin; Eltsov-Rudakovsky; Shamaev-Guldin. The remaining batches are postponed.

In the game Stolberg - Ilyin-Genevsky, the opponents exchanged their queens early.

White had a small positional advantage. White methodically strengthened his position, but ... didn’t have enough time to realize the advantage. He got into strong time trouble (three minutes for 20 moves), which was used by his opponent.

With a few clever moves Ilyin-Genevsky wins a pawn, then the second. In the delayed position, the winning of black is beyond doubt.

Yesterday morning were played adjourned games.

Stolberg lost to Ilyin-Zhenevsky. Games Makogonov-Ravinsky and Havin-Sokolsky ended in a draw.

Exceptional fighting was in the second round. Unsuccessfully played the Sicilian party Mikenas vs Kopaev. White got an excellent endgame, as weak black pawns began to be lost one by one. Seeing the hopelessness of further resistance, Mikenas gave up. This is Kopaev's second win.

Also the second victory was won by Panov, who played Black against Schneidemann.

Makogonov perfectly beat Chistyakov. The position in the Caro-Kan opening seemed equal. But it was not quite so. Black had a pawn advantage on the king side, and although the realization of this minimal advantage seemed almost impossible, Makogonov used it with an accurate game, demonstrating a deep understanding of the position. It is difficult to say where Chistyakov made a mistake, but the more honorable was the victory of the Baku master.

Stolberg was trapped in a game with Silich. Blunder cost him a knight and a game.

Unsuccessfully played Ragozin. Poorly playing the English opening with Rovner, he played in the middle of the game sluggishly and non-initiative, which is so unusual for his style. Rovner also played with great energy and therefore his victory is well deserved.

Grechkin beat Alatortsev, and Guldin beat Vistankekis.

The following games ended in a draw: Tolush-Kan, Ebralidze-Rudakovsky, Chekhover-Bronstein, Abrahamyan-Golovko, Ilyin-Zhenevsky - Kaiev, Eltsov-Vasilyev, Dubinin-Rabinovich, Sokolsky-Petrov, Lisitsyn-Koblents. The remaining games are adjourned.

M. STOLBERG.
USSR Chess Master.

Third round

Tour of high-quality games - this is the third round of chess semi-finals, which was played on June 17.

In the first group: Panov played the Spanish opening with Ilyin-Genevsky. Panov went to the weakening of his king side and gave Black the opportunity to knight to take a weak field. Instead, he had a strong pressure on the black queen side. It secured him a pawn win, and soon a game. An interesting game was given by Alatortsev with Ragozin. White poorly played the opening, as his opponent was Ragozin - the author of the system, which he played. Black got a big advantage, since the white e3 pawn was very weak. But Ragozin got into time trouble, messed up and lost. Thurn beat Grechkin.

The games Rovner-Schneideman and Kaiev-Silich ended in a draw.

In the second group: Kopaev, who played Black with Duz-Khotimirsky, won again. He accepted the incorrectly proposed pawn sacrifice and, although the realization of the advantage was hampered by the presence of multi-colored bishopes, he achieved victory with an accurate game. In the game Koblenz-Abrahamyan, the advantage passed from hand to hand. The last and decisive mistake was made by Koblenz. Won Abrahamyan.

Adjourned parties: Kuzminykh-Bronstein and Golovko-Chekhover.

In both games, whites stand to win.

In the third group: major complications unfolded in the game Chavin-Tolush (Philidor defense). White poorly played the opening and, in order to complicate the game, made a dubious pawn sacrifice. But Tolush perfectly understood the complications and quickly proved the unworthiness of the white's game. The bitter struggle ended in victory for Tolush.

In the Catalan opening, Petrov won against Goldenov, who failed to solve the important problem of the development of a queen's bishop in this opening.

Kirillov lost to Sokolsky, Gerstenfeld - to Chistyakov.

The game Kan - Ravinsky ended in a draw.

In the fourth group: Dubinin won against Kasparyan, whose king set off on a very dangerous journey from the king side to the queen side. Shamaev beat Yeltsov. Black too frivolously brought the queen out in the early stage of the game and was deservedly punished.

Vasiliev-Ebralidze - a draw. Adjourned games: Vistankekis-Veresov and Rabinovich-Goldin.

Fourth round

In the first group, Silich in the opening achieved a great advantage in the game with Panov. White pieces took active positions, while Black at the early stage had to switch to passive defense. White methodically strengthened their positions. With an ingenious combination, Silich wins quality and achieves victory without much difficulty. Silic wins this game in first place, having two and a half points out of three possible.

Stolberg beat Kaiev. Black badly played out the swaps of the French defense and came under a strong attack.

Alatortsev won against Schneidemann, Ragozin at Thurn.

The game Ilyin-Genevsky - Rovner ended in a draw.

In the second group: the Belavenets-Bronstein game ended with a sensational result. Bronstein - the youngest participant in the tournament - played the King’s Indian opening well, seized the initiative and beat the white king with one of the strongest participants of the semi-final with a direct attack. Kuzminych won against passively playing Golovko.

Chekhover beat Koblenz. Adjourned games: Abrahamyan-Mikenas and Lisitsyn - Duz-Khotimirsky.

The games developed peacefully in the third group. Games Chistyakov-Kan, Ravinsky-Havin, Tolush-Petrov ended in a draw.

Baku master Makogonov played poorly, putting off the game with Gerstenfeld in a losing position. Also postponed the party Golden-Kirillov. Ahead Tolush - three points out of four.

In the fourth group, Rudakovskiy defeated Vasiliev.

Kasparyan beat Guldin in good style. The games Ebralidze-Shamaev and Veresov-Rabinovich after a long positional maneuvering ended in a draw. The game Eltsov-Vistaneckis adjourned.

Lieding the group - Dubinin with two points out of three. On this round he was free.

M. STOLBERG.

Fifth round

In the first group, the game Panov-Stolberg aroused great interest.

Black, in response to the beloved Panov's move of the king pawn, chose the Karo-Kan defense, which usually gives a solid, calm game.

But this game had major complications at an early stage.

Black unexpectedly sacrificed a pawn and got good chances for an attack. However, Stolberg prematurely tried to force events, instead of systematically strengthening his position, he went for a very complex and long combination, which ended, however, in a most unexpected way.

At that moment when White’s position seemed critical, Panov won 2 pawns with a spectacular counter-combination with the rook sacrifice.

The realization of the advantages still had significant difficulties, since the black pieces took active positions. The game was adjourned. Black, despite the absence of 2 pawns, has big chances for a draw.

In the second group, the game Mikenas-Chekhover was developing sharply. Checkover too excitedly attacked White’s solid position. Mikenas repulsed Black's offense and he himself attacked the weakened queen side of Chekhover. His attack was so strong that black suffered material losses and lost.

After long positional maneuvers, the Golovko-Belavenets game ended in a draw.

In the third group, the exciting struggle was in the Kan-Makogonov party.

This game by its nature was very reminiscent of the game Mikenas-Chekhover.

Here, too, white from the very beginning went on the offensive. His attack really seemed formidable. But you will not take Makogonov with your bare hands. No wonder in chess circles he is jokingly called "chess pillbox."

He very rarely loses. He demonstrated his insight and deep understanding of the position in this game. Once again! He repelled Kahn’s attack and won the game, skillfully playing on the numerous weaknesses that formed in White’s position as a result of an interesting, but nevertheless incorrect game.

In the fourth group: Rabinovich suffered the first defeat, losing to Eltsov. Rabinovich, in a completely equal position, tried to play for the win. This was associated with great risk.

Sixth Round

This round was particularly noticeable thorough preparation of the masters for this important competition. The sixth round produced large number of important new moves, enriching chess theory.

In the first group: in the opening that was studied in details - the New Indian Opening - unexpectedly forcefully led in the game Stolberg-Rovner to a rarely encountered correlation of forces: the white queen against rook, knight and black pawn. The flow of the game showed that White has the best odds. The game moved to the endgame, in which the white queen dominated the entire board. An uncomplicated but ingenious trap, into which Black fell into, made it easier for White to win.

Panov made a draw with Kayyev, and Alatortsev adjourned the game with Silich in a roughly equal position.

Leading the group - Panov - 3.5 out of 5 and Alatortsev - 3 out of 4.

In the second group: a curious incident occurred in the game Belavenets-Koblenz. Black played the whole game perfectly, but in a completely won position made a blunder and lost the queen. Of course, Koblenz immediately surrendered.

Golovko played badly with Black with Bronstein the KIng Indian defence. He got a cramped position. To ease White’s pressure, Golovko sacrificed a pawn, then a piece, in search of complications, but nothing helped. White won.

Leading the group - Kopaev with 3.5 out of 4. Today his game with Abrahamyan did not take place due to the illness of his opponent.

In the third group: Makogonov, a chess player of positional style, flashed his combination talent. Playing white with Havin, he got an active position in the opening. In the ensuing complications he goes on an exceptionally long, complex and beautiful combination. White has the queen, rook at the same time under the attack, and this is with the king's open position! But the combination was calculated accurately and Havin was forced to admit defeat.

Tolush won against Sokolsky.

Leading the group - Tolush - 3.5 out of 5, Makogonov - 3 out of 5.

In the fourth group: an important novelty in the Queen's Gambit made Veresov, playing with Dubinin. The whole game proceeded with the advantage of White, who managed to win a pawn. In mutual time trouble, white did not play the strongest way and they he unlikely to be able to win a deferred position.

The game Vasiliev-Shamaev postponed in a very sharp position.

Leading - Shamaev - 3 out of 4.

M. STOLBERG.

This was the last report of Stolberg.

On the June 22nd without waiting for for beginning of round 7, Stolberg, a soldier of Soviet Army left the tournament and his native city, to which he was not destined to return.

The round 7 was played on June 22, 1941.

I checked the "Sarkanais Sports"; April 24, 1941, p. 3. The match Latvia - Lithuania was played on round 3.

<hemy> I have been away from the keyboard for the past few days because my lovely sister came to visit.

I will soon resume work on Game Collection: Rostov on Don 1941 USSR ch Semifinal .

That is a stunning find you made on this source: http://www.viskra.ru/2018/12/chapte...

As you know, it is a comprehensive study of so many great <Rostov> events and players, with detailed reports, rare photographs and such. What a treasure trove!

On other good news, <cg.com> has uploaded four new <Petrovs> games from the <Hamburg Olympiad 1930>.

################

<Your source has the first round starting on June 6, 1941, and according to Andrew Soltis, the finish date for this tournament was the 9th round. A 10th round was scheduled for June 23, but none of the players showed up because on that day they were all trying to get out of Rostov on Don because the German army was about to enter the city. Therefore, we could reliably say that the finish date was June 23?>

The articles from "Sarkanais Sports", about this tournament that I posted mentioned June 14 as an opening date, while June 15 as a 1st round date:

<The competition is scheduled for June 13-29, 1941." ("Sarkanais Sports", May 24, 1941, p. 3).> <Koblenz and Petrov already arrived Rostov on June 11. It was very blessed because made it possible to get used to local conditions, as well as high heat. The semi-finals were only revealed on June 14, and the 1st round was played on the evening of June 15th. ("Sarkanais Sports", June 23, 1941, p. 3>

It is consistent with the new sources:

<On Saturday, June 14, was held organizational meeting of participants. ("64-Шахматное Обозрение" ("64-Chess review"), No. 25, June 18, 1941)> <On June 15, at 5.30 pm, the semi-final competitions at the USSR Championship in Chess began at the Rostov Tabachnik Club ("Большевистская смена" ("Bolshevik Shift"), June 17, 1941)>

<Hemy> Aha ok thank you.

I wonder how many players actually played their 7th round game though? Nobody in the crosstable (Rusbase, Di Felice) was recorded with more than 6 games played: http://al20102007.narod.ru/ch_urs/1...

We know for sure from <Bushkov's> Rostov Book that Stolberg himself did not play his 7th round game, for example.

The following report from <Bushkov> here suggests that while Stolberg did not play a round 7 game, the 7th round meeting between <Bronstein-Mikenas> was in fact played. The report also says that Stolberg did not complete his adjourned 6th round game either. In the crosstable Stolberg is listed as having completed only 4 games, which matches well with <Bushkov's> report, though not fully. Did Stolberg still have another adjourned game to finish? Or was one of his results not recorded in the crosstable?

<Bushkov's> report on round 7:

<On June 22, without waiting for the start of the 7th round, and without even finishing the deferred game with V. Panov , he (Stolberg), as a soldier, left the tournament, left his hometown, to which he was not destined to return ...

This explains the fact that Stolberg reports nothing about the Bronstein-Mikenas game, in which the young Kiev master won a brilliant victory - first using an important novelty in the Latvian gambit (6.Se2), and then carrying out a lightning matte attack. http://www.viskra.ru/2018/12/chapte... >

<I think that at least several of the results in this tournament did not make it into the surviving crosstable that we have today.>

From the book of V. A. Asrian "Vladimir Makogonov", Moscow, 1991, pp. 33-34:

"... At this Sunday, June 22, - recalls Makogonov, - me together with Kasparian walked in the city. On the street we herd the speech of Molotov about German fascist attack. I rushed to hotel to tell the tournament referee Vladimir Snegirev that I have go home and arrive to military registration office. ... Many other players left at the same day."

It looks like from the few players that left in Rostov on June 22nd, the pairing was altered.

This is the pairing for the rounds 7 and 8:

round 7
5:3 6:2 7:1 8:11 9:10

round 8
12:10 11:9 1:8 2:7 3:6 4:5

In the group 1 no games from round 7 were played. Instead was played game from round 8 Panov - Rovner.

Group 2:
3 games from round 8 were played:
Belavenetz - Duz-Chotimirsky
Bronstein - Mikenas
Golovko - Koblentz

Group 3:
Game from round 7 Kirillov - Chistiakov.

<hemy>

On Game Collection: Rostov on Don 1941 USSR ch Semifinal , I wonder can we now reliably date every round?

We know the rounds were played in the evening, with the previous day's adjournments played in the morning.

We know the date of the first round.

Then there is this information: <Reports of Stolberg in the newspapers from June 17th, 19th and 22nd>

From the research you have provided, these round dates are definite- but I am not sure how we can deduce dates for rounds 4,5, and 6. It looks to me like one of the dates in that span had to be a rest day?

Round 1 June 15
Round 2 June 16

On June 19th was published report of rounds 3 and 4.

Round 3 June 17
Round 4 June 18

Article of Golovko "CLEARING TRACE", "64 - Chess Review", No. 1, 1968, pp. 6-7:

"On June 21, we all sat down at the chess boards for the last time in this tournament. My opponent was a very young chess player... It was Bronstein - the future grandmaster...

It so happened that the date of my exam in university coincided with the tournament. ... last night I played a game with a strong Moscow master Belavenets ..."

The game Bronstein - Golovko was played in round 6. The exam wasn't at the same date with the game against Bronstein, (0therwise it would be mentioned in the article!) so exam was on June 20 and the game from round 5 Golovko - Belavenets on June 19.

Round 5 June 19
Round 6 June 21

<hemy> That is genius!
