Flood loses bid to strike down reserve system
U.S. District Judge Irving Ben Cooper upheld baseball's reserve clause limiting players to one club unless traded or released. Curt Flood's antitrust suit, valued at 4.1 million dollars, faces appeals to the federal circuit and possibly the Supreme Court. Flood's camp and Players Association plan further action while urging negotiation with owners. Related notes mention baseball commissioner Bowie Kuhn and Yankees pitcher Steve Hamilton supporting dialogue over a fix. The article closes with a Colorado alumni football note on Eddie Dove.
