Karpov, Kasparov Meet Again; First Game Adjourned

The first game in the second round of the world chess championship between titlist Anatoly Karpov and challenger Gary Kasparov was adjourned Tuesday when Kasparov, playing white, sealed his 42nd move.

Kasparov was one pawn ahead of the champion, and experts watching the game said the challenger had a winning position if he continues correctly when play resumes today.

The first round between the two Soviet grandmasters was stopped in February by the president of the World Chess Federation, Florencio Campomanes of the Philippines, after a record-shattering 5 1/2 months of play.

Karpov was then leading 5-3, but Kasparov had taken the two final games.

Here are the moves up to adjournment:

Kasparov-Karpov 1: 1 d4 Nf6 2 c4 e6 3 Nc3 Bb4 4 Nf3 c5 5 g3 Ne4 6 Qd3 Qa5 7 Qxe4 Bxc3+ 8 Bd2 Bxd2+ 9 Nxd2 Qb6 10 dxc5 Qxb2 11 Rb1 Qc3 12 Qd3 Qxd3 13 exd3 Na6 14 d4 Rb8 15 Bg2 Ke7 16 Ke2 Rd8 17 Ne4 b6 18 Nd6 Nc7 19 Rb4 Ne8 20 Nxe8 Kxe8 21 Rhb1 Ba6 22 Ke3 d5 23 cxd6 Rbc8 24 Kd3 Rxd6 25 Ra4 b5 26 cxb5 Rb8 27 Rab4 Bb7 28 Bxb7 Rxb7 29 a4 Ke7 30 h4 h6 31 f3 Rd5 32 Rc1 Rbd7 33 a5 g5 34 hxg5 Rxg5 35 g4 h5 36 b6 axb6 37 axb6 Rb7 38 Rc5 f5 39 gxh5 Rxh5 40 Kc4 Rh8 41 Kb5 Ra8, adjourned.
