Montana Standard-Post ftanlm. Monlm 1X4 Red planning io run more in new park ST. LOUIS (AP) Red Schoendienst stood hi St. Louis' new baseball stadium Wednesday and envisioned his Cardinals dashing ff to an extra base they wouldn't have taken last season. "I anticipate that we will do a little more running in this park," he said.

"And that should help us." The occasion was the Cardinal manager's first look at the $8 million oval structure in downtown St. Louis and the installation of the first 49,300 seats that will go into it. The Cardinals will open the park May 12 against the Atlanta Braves after playing their first 12 home games in their present home, Busch Stadium. Schoendienst said pitchers and line-drive hitters would like the new stadium because of its uniform dimensions and a roomier right field. It will be 330 feet to the left and right field corners and 414 to center.

Busch Stadium is 352 to left, 425 to center and only 310 to a high screen in right. Schoendienst said the new stadium is almost tailor-made for the Cardinals. "We've got a pretty fast ball club and we're mostly line-drive hitters," he said. "We don't have the base stealing speed, but the speed that will get you the extra base on a hit. "In the old park you had run like mad to get a double off the right field screen.

I expect it will be easier to make it to second in this park."

Eckert said Wednesday that more people are interested in seeing the game and one of his big jobs would be to see that the demand is met. Eckert indicated at a news conference that expansion and franchise shifts might be the answer to meet the demand. But, he insisted, "we in baseball will have to take a good look at the situation before granting any franchise shifts or expanding. "We plan to study all facets of the development in the minors and in colleges and even on the try to bring the game to the fans," he said.

Owner Coach Halas of Chicago Bears seeks a temporary injunction to restrain Allen, his defensive coach, from becoming head coach of the Loi Angeles Rams. Allen told the court Wednesday he thought the case should be submitted to National Football League Commissioner Rozelle, adding: "Halas told me there were eight or nine men on the Rams list for head coach and that it was all right for me to talk to Dan Reeves (Rams owner). Then after Halas found out I could get the job his whole attitude changed. I have not yet signed a contract but I have an agreement. All my life I've worked to get a better job, and then you get this your employer won't release you." Albert E.

Jenner Allen's attorney, told the court that the allegation that his client was taking along confidential defensive manuals and secret information of the Bears to the Rams was a "red herring." "Allen doesn't want the defense manuals and the Bears can have them back" he said. "What Allen has in his head he is not going to get out of his head." In his suit, Halas charged Allen with taking Bear secrets with him to Los Angeles and undermining Bear chances for the National Football League title in 1966. Halas said Allen has "special, except! onal and unique knowledge and skill as a coach which cannot be measured in monetary terms and cannot be adequately compensated."

Chuck Mather, whose Bear contract expires in April, is seeking a top job with the Washington Redskins, St. Louis Cardinals, Pittsburgh Steelers or the new Atlanta Falcons.

2. Abe Gibron, highly successful as Bear offensive line coach last season, already has rejected a head coaching job offer from the new Miami Dolphins of the rival American Football League. Halas views the possible departures of Allen and Mather in completely contrasting manner. Allen, a key personnel man who figured prominently in cor- raling -three Bears who won NFL Rookie of the Year honors since 1961, has a $19,000 a year contract extending until 1968. Allen, who several years ago survived a showdown as defensive coach with Clark Shaughnessy, personally signed tight end Mike Ditka and fullback Ron Bull and persisted in signing of Gale Sayers, pegged a good-run, no block prospect.

All three became NFL Rookies of the Year. Halas figures Allen's talent bloomed in the Bear organization and that he owes the club the benefit of that talent the duration of his contract. Monday, Allen signed as Ram head coach at an estimated $40,000 annually in a multi-year pact. Allen and Mather both to the Bears in 1958, but Mather never attained inner- sanctum status.
