Jul-10-10		Benzol: <ughaibu> I've taken the liberty of uploading this game for you. You've basically got it right. There is an example of how they want the layout given in the PGN Upload Utility. Just use that as a template in future if you need to. Cheers mate. :)

Jul-10-10		ughaibu: Thanks.

Jul-10-10		whiteshark: <ughaibu> No success for the years 1938-1940 @ http://www.rogerpaige.me.uk/tables9... , http://www.rogerpaige.me.uk/tables1... and http://www.rogerpaige.me.uk/tables1... Sometimes there's only a <G. A. Dzagurov> mentioned as editor of <Pereselenie gortsev v Turtsiiu (Rostov on Don, 1925)>, but I have no idea if they are identical.

Jul-11-10		ughaibu: Odd that a player who beat Smyslov and Bohatirchuk appears to have only three recorded games.

Jul-11-10		ughaibu: I cant see any resembling name at Chessmetrics, either. Perhaps I suffer a dearth of orthographical imagination.

Jul-11-10		whiteshark: I think < Д з а г у р о в > is mentioned here ["among them: Simagin, Bonch-Osmolovsky, Tarasov, Averbakh, Golubovskii, Beilin, <Dzagurov> etc."] as master candidate (or s.th. similar) , responsible for the demonstration boards - they were huge and double-stacked, if you look at this picture http://www.chesspro.ru/_images/mate...

Jul-11-10		ughaibu: Interesting, thanks.

Jan-17-19		ughaibu: So, should we tentatively conclude that this guy was a war casualty?

Jan-17-19		login: Георгий (Батраз, Базя) Павлович Дзагуров After the start of World War II the young man, already a fine chess player (e.g. beat Lasker in a simul 1935) volunteered and was sent to study at the Moscow Military Political School. The task of the Academy was to prepare workers with higher military education capable of exercising political leadership, agitation and propaganda work for the Red Army and Maritime Fleet. "... The contribution of the Military-Political Academy to the victory over Germany in the Great Patriotic War is invaluable. Already in the first days .. more than 1,000 students and teachers left ..." see https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%9... In "The Drive on Moscow, 1941", Authors Niklas Zetterling, Anders Frankson note: "... Students from the Moscow Military-Political School were sent to Mozhaisk [Mozhaysk] ..." to reinforce one of four towns crucial to the defense along the line west of Moscow. Elaboration to his premature death: "... On October 7, 1941, in the first battle Geórgij Dzagurov received severe bullet wounds to both legs. A small group of surviving fighters attempted to leave the [Vyasma] encirclement with Dzagurov but after a few days they were forced to leave him in the village of Tsineyevo, Znamensky District. The further fate of Dzagurov is unknown, he has been missing since January 1942. .." Adapted from "Perspectives of War", Author Boris Marcus, 2010 see https://en.calameo.com/read/0007983... This Moscow born citizen, exceptionally talented chess player and theoretician died a (gruesome) patriotic soldier's death alongside so many of one misused generation.

May-05-20		MissScarlett: There's a feature on him in the latest <NIC 2020#>, pp.46-54. ............. <Bazya Dzagurov was born in Moscow on 15 November 1917, the year that the country was shocked and shaken by the outbreak of the Russian Revolution His mother was Russian, his father Ossetian. In the birth certificate he was officially named as Georgy, but he was also given an Ossetian name, Batraz. Amongst family and friends he was commonly known as 'Bazya'.> As to his end, he was injured in battle with the Germans somewhere in the vicinity of Vyazma on October 7th 1941. It seems he ended up in a POW camp: <Dzagurov probably died there sometime in late October or early November 1941, a few weeks short of his 24th birthday. In the official records he was listed as missing in action since January 1942.>
