INTERNATIONAL NEWS The world championship continued in New York City last week with two exciting draws. World champion Gary Kasparov leads former champion Anatoly Karpov, Vh-Vfr, in the 24-game match. On Monday, Kasparov, as Black in a King's Indian Defense, sacrificed first the exchange, then his Queen. Despite having a Queen against two minor pieces, Karpov could not make progress. Black came close to winning, but the game was drawn on Tuesday after adjournment.

Wednesday's fourth game, though not quite as spectacular, was equally puzzling. Again Kasparov sacrificed material to activate his pieces. This time Karpov nearly won. Games are scheduled Monday, Wednesday, and Friday evenings. The Times will print the moves of every game in Section A of the following day's newspaper.
