A son of Principia's founder, Mary Kimball Morgan, he faithfully served the school in many capacities, including that of Headmaster of the Upper School, Senior Vice President in charge of the Upper and Lower School Building Project, and President and Trustee of The Principia.

  • Kuzmin-Polugaevsky, Interzonal Tournament, Riga 1979
    (The annotations to this game, by L. A. Polugaevsky and his second in the Riga Interzonal, O. M. Averkin, are from the Soviet tournament book Mezhzonalnye turniry Riga ‘79, Rio de Zhaneiro ‘79, edited by V. I. Chepizhny and published by Fizkultura i Sport, Moscow in 1980. The translation from the original Russian is by Douglas Griffin.) Kuzmin – Polugaevsky 8rd round, FIDE Interzonal Tournament, Riga, 15th September 1979 1.c4 c5 2.Nf3 Nf6 3.g3 Nc6 4.Bg2 d5 5.0–0 e5 After the game Kuzmin said that he had completely forgotten about the possibility of this move for Black, and had reckoned only with 5...e6 or 5...g6. 6.cxd5 (Translator’s note: The critical test of Black’s last move is considered to be 6.Qa4, and on 6...Bd6, 7.Ng5.) 6...Nxd5 7.Nc3 Be6 XIIIIIIIIY 8r+-wqkvl-tr0 7zpp+-+pzpp0 6-+n+l+-+0 5+-zpnzp-+-0 4-+-+-+-+0 3+-sN-+NzP-0 2PzP-zPPzPLzP0 1tR-vLQ+RmK-0 xabcdefghy The Maróczy Variation in the Sicilian Defence has been obtained, but with reversed colours and, of course, a tempo less for Black; however, practice shows that White’s extra tempo is only enough for equality. 8.Nxd5 This is already a questionable decision. White chooses a path in which the extra tempo is not felt. Much more substantive is 8.Ng5, beginning tempo play. After 8...Qxg5 9.Nxd5 Qd8, quite good appears 10.e4 followed by a2–a3 and b2–b4. Black does not have time to do this in the analogous position, and this makes the such a plan unacceptable for him.
