Solution to Position '6054: Black wins with 1 Rb3! 2 Qc2 c4 3 Kl 1 Rb2. VE INVITED A FEW OF 16 Nd5! Qxd2? permits the breakthrough 1 7 Nxe7 Kf7 18 Bxd2 Kxe7 19 e6! dxe5 20 BM. 16 Be3 QeB 17 Bf4 Qc6 The greedy 17 Nxe4? 18 Nxe4 Qxe4 19 Bxd6 leaves Black in trouble on the dark squares. 18 Kh1 Ng4l7 Inviting 19 Bxg4 e5. Certainly not 18 19 Be3 QaB 20 Bb6.

19 h3 eB 20 Na4 Qa7 21 Bc4 KhB 22 hxg4 exf4 23 Nb6 Following Spraggett Sokolov '5, Saint John 1988. which continued 23 Rb8 24 Rx(4! Bd7 25 Nxd7 Qxd7 26 RIB, and White eventually won. d6l7 A novelty. 24 exdB cxdB 26 Bxd6 Rb8 26 NxcB White cannot play 26 a la Spraggett, as 26 Rxb6 27 RxfSf Bxf8 28 QI2 is refuted by 28 Rh6. RbxcS 27 Rh3 Aiming at h7.

After 27 Rb7 Qe3 or 27 Rxf4 Bd6 28 Rxl8 Rx(8 29 Rf3-Qe7, Black has enough dark-square counterplay. Qb6 28 Re1 Bg6 29 Re6 Qd8 30 04 Rb8 31 Qd3 Bh4l Both defending and attacking. The careless 31 h6? 32 Qg6 gives White a chance for Bd5-e4 32 B47l QgB 33 Bxh77 Rfd8 Black takes the initiative. 34 Qc2 As 34 QI5 Rd 1 36 Kh2 Bg3 36 Rxg3 fxg3 costs the exchange. f3l 36 Rxf37 Not 35 g3? Rd2 36 Qc 1 Rh2 37 Kxh2 Qxc 1 38 Rxh4 Qd2, but 35 Bd3l? is still unclear.

Then 35 fxg2 36 Qxg2 and 35 Qxg4 36 Re4 favor White, and 35 Kg8 36 Bh7 Kh8 37 Bd3 repeats. Rd2 36 Q4 Similar is 36 Qg6 Rd 1 37 Kh2 Qc 1 38 Re8 Rxe8 39 Qxe8 Kxh7 40 Qh5 Qh6 41 QI5 g6, and Black keeps his extra Bishop. If 36 Qf5, then 36 Rd137Rf1 (else 37 Qc1 mates) Qxf5 wins a Rook.

Usual are 10 d5 and 10 Na4. dxcB 1 1 dxeB NaS 12Na4A new move. The older 12 Bg5 Nxe5 13 Be7 Qxb2 gives Black enough for the exchange. QaB 13 Bf4 Nc7 14 Qc2 Nefi 16 Rfd1 White takes the d-file and clears II for his KB.

RaS 16 Rd6 QaB 17 Radl Nb6 18 NxbB? After 19 Nc3 Nc4 20 R6d3 Nd4l? 21 Nxd4 cxd4 22 Rxd4 Nxe5. chances are about even. axb6 19 a3 Qa4l As 20 Qxa4 Rxa4 21 Rel Nd4 undermines the pawn at e5. 20 02 bBI 21 Qe3 1)422 axb4 Qxb4 23 R6d2 Ra2 24 Rbl c4 Black has an undeniable initiative. His next goal is to create a Queenside passer.

25 Rc2 bB 26 Bh6 QcB 27 Qc1 Nd4 28 Bxg7 Kxg7 29 Nxd4 Qxd4 Apparently winning the pawn at e5, but White finds counterplay. 30 b3l Rxc2 31 Qxc2 c3 32 Rd1 1 Neither 32 Rc 1 t4 nor 32 b4 c5! saves White. QcBI Not 32 Qxe5? because 33 b4 and 34 Rd3 regains the pawn. 33 b4 Qxb4 34 Rd3 cBI 36 Rxc3 c4 36 14 White keeps his e-pawns, but Black will win with his connected passers. Qc6f 37 Kh2 Qd4 38 Rf3 b4l This looks like a blunder, but Kasparov has seen further.

B7 16 Rb3 Qc6 Almost forced, as 15 Qa5 OUR CLOSE FRIENDS TO OUR INTERNATIONAL NEWS Former world champion Anatoly Kar-pov edged closer to victory in his Candidates final match in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, against Jan Timman of Holland. Karpov won the adjourned fourth game, then drew the sixth and seventh games to take a 4V4-2VS lead in the best-of-12-games series.

Timman, the world's third-ranked player, has not come close to defeating Karpov, while Karpov has squandered several opportunities to stretch his lead. The winner will challenge Gary Kasparov in the 1990 world championship. The 1990 world championship match will begin in New York City on Oct. 7. New York Mayor David Oinkins announced Wednesday that the World Chess Federation (FIDE) had agreed to stage the first 12 games of the 24-game match in New York, and the final 12 in Lyons, France.

The Soviet Union won the Summit match, a double round-robin team tournament on 10 boards in Reykjavik, Iceland. After losing to England, 4-6, in the fifth round, the Soviet team had a lead of only a half-point over England and 1 V4 points over the United States. In the final round, the Soviets barely drew the U.S., while England was held to a draw by the Nordic all-stars. Final standings: U.S.S.R., 31V4-28VS; England, 31-29; U.S., 30-30; and Nordic all-stars, 27V5-32M. The Soviet team, which lacked Kasparov and Karpov, won three matches and drew two.
