US Open 1946, Pittsburgh
Compiled by Phony Benoni

<47th US Open
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
July 8-20, 1946>

The end of World War II marked a rejuvenation in the US Open, as the 1946 tournament set a record with 58 players. Two other features marked a new transition in its history.

First, the Swiss System was used for the first time (after the first two rounds were paired by lot) to determine qualifiers for the various final sections. Beginning in 1947, it would be used for the entire tournament and the number of players began to grow. This helped solve the scheduling problems which had plagued previous Opens, when two or three games would have to be played every day for an extended period.

Also, 1946 saw the first appearance of a new generation of US players who would become the masters of the future. Making their debut, among others, were Larry Evans, Robert Byrne, Arthur Bisguier, Hans Berliner, Donald Byrne, Walter Shipman, and George Kramer. With several veterans and former champions participating as well, plus an appearance by Georges Koltanowski in a playing role, the tournament offers an interesting generational conflict.

The Preliminary tournament was played as an eight-round Swiss. Afterwards, the players were divided into groups of 8-10 by order of finish, with ties broken by Sonnenborg-Berger. Each finals group then played a round robin, with scores from the preliminary section carried over.

Preliminary Swiss

The schedule is not certain. Eight rounds were played in the eight days from July 8-15, but the "Pittsburgh Post Gazzette" of July 11 indicates that no games were scheduled that day due to the USCF annual business meetings, so there was one day with two rounds. The only indication I can find is the "Post Gazette" of July 10 stated that rounds 2 and 3 were played "yesterday", so I'm going with that.

Monday, July 8: Round 1
Tuesday, July 9: Rounds 2-3
Wednesday, July 10: Round 4
Thursday, July 11: no play scheduled (adjournments only) Friday, July 12: Round 5
Saturday, July 13: Round 6
Sunday, July 14: Round 7
Monday, July 15: Round 8

NOTE: Colors are indicated in this crosstable. If the result appears first, the player had White; if the opponent's number appears first, the player had Black.

Obviously the kids were not outclassed. Teenagers Donald Byrne, Bisguier, and Shipman made it to the Championship final while Robert Byrne, Kramer and Evans made the Premier Reserves. A big surprise were the failures of Adams, Santasiere and Koltanowski to qualify for the top section; indeed, Georges couldn't see playing any further and withdrew.

Again, in the round-robin sections the player's score was added to the preliminary score, the total determining final place. For example, Steiner scored 7.5 in the finals, 6.0 in the prelims, for a total of 13.5

The schedule is also uncertain for the top two sections. Originally they were to be eight-player sections, but were expanded to ten players at the last moment. They were played over five days (July 16-20), meaning four days with two rounds and one day with a single round. Newspaper reports are contradictory, but I'm going to follow one from the "San Bernadino County Sun of July 20th, which stated there was only one game to play and that Steiner had defeated Shipman the previous evening. That game was in round 8, so the schedule appears to be:

Tuesday, July 16: Rounds 1-2
Wednesday, July 17: Rounds 3-4
Thursday, July 18; Rounds 5-6
Friday, July 19: Rounds 7-8
Saturday, July 20: Round 9

The schedule for the Premier Reserves, also a ten-player section, probably followed this. The other four sections were all seven-rounders, and there is not enough evidence to decide when the rounds were played. Fortunately, the tournament book does provide round-by-round pairings.

The crucial game was O Ulvestad vs H Steiner, 1946 from round 3. Ulvestad was a point lead and had Steiner on the ropes, but ended up losing. He faded after that, while Steiner made a fine score of 7.5/9 in the Finals to win by a point. Herbert Seidman was a strong second, while Donald Byrne proved the best of the young breed.

There probably weren't too many who paid attention when Stoppel beat Schaffer in the first round; after all, they had the fewest carryover points from the Preliminary. However, that game ended up deciding first place! Schaffer won the rest of his games, but Stoppel held him off by only conceding one draw.
