US Open 1951, Fort Worth
Compiled by Phony Benoni

<52nd US Open
Fort Worth, Texas
July 9-21, 1951>

An even younger member of the newer generation, 19-year-old Larry Evans, came out on top. Isaac Kashdan, representing the ancient days of the 1930s, saw his chances ruined by a tenth-round loss to Norman Tweed Whitaker from an even earlier generation. It wasn't all kids, you know.

The attendance of 98 was down a bit from the Detroit monster, but still the second-highest in the tournament's history.

MYSTERY GAME

The following game was published in the <American Chess Bulletin>, July/August 1951, p. 77

Adams - Quillen

1.e4 e5 2.Nc3 Bc5 3.f4 d6 4.Nf3 Nc6 5.Bb5 Bd7 6.Na4 Bb6 7.d3 Qe7 8.Nxb6 axb6 9.0-0 f6 10.f5 0-0-0 11.c4 g6 12.g4 h5 13.Nh4 gxf5 14.gxf5 Be8 15.Kh1 Qh7 16.Qa4 Nge7 17.Be3 Rg8 18.Qa8+ Nb8 19.a4 Rg4 20.Ng2 Nec6 21.a5 Nb4 22.axb6 c6 23.Ra7 Nc2 24.Ba4 Nb4 25.Ra1 N4a6 26.Bd1 Rg7 27.b4 h4 28.b5 cxb5 29.cxb5 Bxb5 30.Rc1+ Nc5 31.Bxc5 dxc5 32.Rxc5+ Bc6 33.Rxb7 Rxb7 34.Rxc6+ 1-0

The game follows the results table for the 1951 US Open in FOrt Worth, and precedes several pages of games from the tournament. In his notes, Sanatsiere explicitly states that White was Weaver Adams.

The problem is that Weaver Adams -- or, for that matter, any player named Adams -- played at Fort Worth. (Paul Quillen did. And we have the scores of all six of his losses. None come close to this game, except the one Vienna he lost as White.)

Since Adams was from Massachusetts and Quillen from California it is not likely they had many chances to face each other. Both were at the 1950 US Open in Detroit, but did not olay in the tournament..

If you have any insights about the background of this game, please leave a note in my forum.
