Event table notes

Event data
Name: 25th Saxonian Federation Tournament
Place: Leipzig
Start date: 1940
End date: 1940
 
Notes:
Each player played 7 games, so either this was a Swiss-style tournament, or it was not completed. Di Felice has Jindřich Engel here, but this cannot be correct. Jindřich Engel was from Slovakia, and was Jewish, so would not have been playing in Saxony during the war.
