Event table notes

Event data
Name: 1st Palestine Championship
Place: Tel Aviv
Start date: 30 Sep. 1936
End date: 10 Oct. 1936
 
Notes:
The scores given in the Judische Rundschau total to 54.5 instead of 55 as it must be for an 11-player single-round all-play-all tournament. It gives Mendelevitsch a score of 3, but Le Pays Réel gives him 3.5, as does the full crosstable given by Di Felice, and the crosstable and scores are consistent. Di Felice identifies 'Rosenbaum' as 'Rosenbaum, G.', but without further evidence, I will reserve judgement on this identification.
