Flood Agrees at Last to Play New York Curt Flood has agreed to play center field for the Washington Senators next season under a contract that contains the reserve clause he sat out a whole year to protest. The decision, expected since last week when Flood indicated he would sign with the Senators, came out of a meeting here between Flood, Washington owner Bob Short and baseball commissioner Bowie Kuhn.

While 1 0 0 d's celebrated $4.1 million anti-trust suit against baseball and the reserve clause system remains in the courts, his future on the field now seems certain for at least the 1971 baseball season. At Washington, he joins one of other problem players, pitcher Denny McLain, another recent Short acquisition in a multi-player trade with Detroit. Money appeared to be the main reason Flood ended his holdout. His contract with the Senators reportedly will call for a salary of about $110,000 a year, and Flood said last week everybody else, had some business reverses and I need the However, he added, still think the reserve clause Kuhn had said earlier any contract Flood signed would have to contain the traditional reserve clause, which binds a player to one team unless he is traded, released or quits.

Following the New York meeting, Flood was reported to have left for Denmark, where he has made his home during the past year. He avoided the press. Short also was unavailable for comment.

Gibson became the third man in history to win the Young Award as the top pitcher in his league more than once since its inception in 1956. Denny McLain and Sandy Koufax were the other repeaters.
