The 1948 US championship tournament was the first one held outside of New York City. It was held in South Fallsburg, NY in the Catskills "Borscht Belt" resort area 11-30 Aug 1948. The director was Richard Wayne, and the assistant director was Fred Reinfeld. Neither Reshevsky nor Fine played. According to Wayne, who was also chairman of the championship committee, negotiations broke down: <"Unfortunately Mr. Reshevsky saw fit to make certain financial stipulations which the committee was totally unable to meet..."> Negotiations with Fine had broken down "for a similar reason." Almost all of the players had qualified in preliminary events held throughout the country. Only Kashdan and Ulvestad (a last-minute replacement for Reshevsky) were directly seeded into the tournament. This was a deliberate attempt on the part of the US federation to make entry into the championship more "democratic," but with the strongest talent concentrated in the New York area and in a few other cities, it probably only served to weaken the field overall.

In previous years, qualifying sections were held in New York right before the finals. As part of trying to broaden the scope of qualifying, various areas of the country were charged with holding their own qualifying events as long as they concluded no later than three months before the final. The New England event in Boston was won by Adams. The mid-Atlantic event in Philadelphia was won by Hesse. Whitaker qualified out of the southeast in Johnson City, TN and Janes qualified out of the southeast in Fort Worth. The midwest event in Chicago was allotted two spots, won by Poschel and Sandrin. The west coast event was also allowed two qualifiers and these places were won by Steiner and Almgren. The New York area qualified seven players: Santasiere, Evans, Heitner, Kramer, Platz, Shainswit, and Shipman. An added New England qualifier held in New Haven, CT was won in a playoff by Suraci.

THE PLAYERS

Herman Steiner -- Steiner was long-time chess editor for the <Los Angeles Times>. He founded a chess club attended by various celebrity chessplayers. Steiner was the only US player to have a plus score in the 1945 USSR-USA radio match (Game Collection: 1945. USSR vs USA (Radio match)). Steiner played on four US Olympiad teams, winning one team gold medal, and one team and one individual silver medals (http://www.olimpbase.org/players/53...).

Isaac Kashdan -- Despite being a world-class player in his day, Kashdan was never able to negotiate a championship match with Marshall and once the tournament began he would never win the US championship. He was robbed of the title in 1942 by an incorrect ruling in a critical game between Reshevsky and Denker, which meant Reshevsky tied Kashdan for first instead of Kashdan winning the tournament outright. Kashdan lost the playoff match to Reshevsky, and that was as close as he would ever come to being US champion. Kashdan took over as chess editor for the <Los Angeles Times> after Steiner's death. Kashdan became an International Arbiter after his active playing days and directed both Game Collection: First Piatigorsky Cup 1963 and Game Collection: Second Piatigorsky Cup 1966. Kashdan played on five US Olympiad teams, winning three team and two individual gold medals, one team and one individual silver medal, and two individual bronze medals (http://www.olimpbase.org/players/vx...).

George Shainswit -- Shainswit played in five US championships and was a member of the 1950 US Olympiad team (http://www.olimpbase.org/players/b7...).

Weaver Adams -- Although a strong US master of his day, Adams is most remembered for his controversial ideas about White's opening advantage. He won the 1946 US Open and played in five US championships.

Larry Evans -- While he did not score well in this championship, Evans would win the 1951 US championship at 19. He had won the Marshall Chess Club championship at 15, had tied for second in the US Junior championship one year and tied for first the following year. Evans would also win the 1951 US Open right before the 1951 US championship, as well as a gold medal as second reserve board at the 1950 Olympiad in Dubrovnik. Evans would play in eight Olympiads, winning three individual medals (gold, silver, bronze) and two team medals (gold, silver) over the years 1950-1976 (http://www.olimpbase.org/players/a4...).
