Event table notes

Event data
Name: 14th Silesian Chess Union Congress
Place: Gleiwitz
Start date: 29 Sep. 1927
End date: 4 Oct. 1927
 
Notes:
Gaige calls this the '14th Schleswig Chess Union Congress' but this is a misreading for 'Schlesien', the German name of Silesia. Di Felice corrects the name to '14th Silesian Chess Federation'. Di Felice has 'Kraemer, Adolf' at this event, but Ralf Binnewirtz, in the Quarterly for Chess History, clarifies that it was Adolf Kramer, originally of Wroclaw, not Adolf Kraemer, the German problematist.
