  Somewhere along the line you have to beat somebody I’M spectacularly,” Army’s Paul Dietzel commented after the dull, 14–⁠0 victory over George Washington. But Dietzel didn’t mean he wasn’t pleased. I’m always happy to win a football game, by how much doesn’t really make much diff ference. I guess I’m different that way” added the person. able, 38-year-old coach. The performance by his team in D. C. Stadium yesterday didn’t rank with earlier showings against Syracuse and Penn State. and Dietzel wouldn’t be goaded into say ing it was. But his defenses held Dick Drummond to 81 net yards rushing and 10 on two pass receptions and limited Frank Pazzaglia to As yards in six pass competitions. Somebody asked Dietzel if he would liked to have had Billy Cannon, his All-America at Louisiana State three years ago, running through the huge gaps in the line yesterday. IF Cannon had been in there” he replied, she would have scored about six times on that double reverse. It’s kind Of discouragirg to knock every body down and then have them get back up and make the tackle” The double reverse, usually with the left halfback winding up with the ball going to the right, gained “a yards the six times it was tried and set up the first touchdown on a 90 yard burst by John Seymour, the days longest run from scrimnage. 1t wasu’t a new play for Army under Dietzel. There was nothing new by the Cadets, he admitted.
