Crosstable
Three men shared first place in the 1967 Nordic Chess Championship,
and Svedenborg decided not to use his right to get the title, even though he was eligible to do so as he had best Berger.
Júlíus Bogason, a 17-time Akureyri champion, also participated. His games would not count for the purpose of determining the winner
