Karpov Wins Fifth Game in Chess Match, Takes 3-2 Lead Over Kasparov

Challenger Anatoly Karpov, playing white, won the fifth game of the world chess championship match Friday when titlist Gary Kasparov resigned after 38 moves.

In a frantic scramble, Kasparov left himself with only one minute to make his final seven moves.

The match score now stands 3-2 in Karpov’s favor.

The winner of the 24-game contest will be the first player to score 12 1/2 points or achieve six victories. A win scores one point and a draw scores half a point.

The sixth game is Monday with Kasparov playing white.
