Agee agreed to salary terms with the New York Mets and the ace centerfielder reportedly got a $10,000 boost to $65,000 for the 1971 season. But Bench, Cincinnati's fine young catcher, and Perry, Minnesota's Cy, Young winner, were still apart in contract talks with their respective clubs.

Bench reportedly wants a three-year, $500,000 contract. Cincinnati General Manager Bob Howsam, however, said it is against club policy to issue a multi-year contract.

He was reportedly in Cincinnati, while the Reds continued spring training in Florida. Two battery mates of Bench, pitchers Jim i 1 1 and Wayne Simpson, also have not agreed to terms. Perry, the Twins' top pitcher in 1970 with 24 victories, has rejected a $65,000 offer from the club and is vacationing in the Bahamas. Agee, the National League's Golden Glove winner in 1970, had a respectable year at the plate with a .286 average and 24 homers as well as stealing a club-record 31 bases.

Pitcher Bob also came to terms with' Pittsburgh, although slapped with a $300 fine for what Pirate General Manager Joe Brown called his "irresponsible approach" toward contract negotiations. "I called Veale last week, and told him I sent him a contract in January and at least he could have notified me that he received it," said Brown. "I thought he was a member of our ball club."
