Paul Dietzel Says
‘Spizzerinctum’ Is
His Cadets' Secret
No matter what happens at
West Point during the rest of the
football season (except the Navy
game) the Academy’s new coach,
Paul Dietzel, can call it a success-
ful first year.
Dietzel says the reason for the
upswing in gridiron prowess can
be attributed to “Spizzerinctum.”
The coach calls it a West Point
word meaning 100 per cent effort.
Webster’s Dictionary lists the
word as “United States slang”
meaning “energy, ambition, the
will to succeed.”
“Spizzerinctum” by either the
Webster or the West Point defi-
nition was much in evidence when
the cadets downed Penn State in
their Oct. 13 tilt.

American Athletes
To Compete in 12
'63 CISM Events
The United States will enter
teams or individuals in a dozen
International Military Sports
Council (CISM) championships in
1963.
The U. S. delegation to the 17th
annual general assembly of CISM
pledged entrants in skiing, cross-
country, boxing, basketball, wres-
tling, track and field, aerial pen-
tathlon, fencing, military pen-

United States.
Also Greece, Iraq, Iran, Italy,
Lebanon, Mexico, Pakistan, Peru,
Portugal, the United Arab Repub-
lic, Sweden, Turkey, Morocco,
Sudan, Syria and Tunisia. Finland
and Switzerland are associate
members.
During the 1962 assembly at
Washington an invitation was for-
warded to Japan to join the group.
The University of Miami of Florida has received the first post-
season bowl bid. New York City’s Gotham Bowl extended the invita-
tion last week. Having played ALABAMA last Saturdaiy, the Hur-
ricane’s face Number One NORTWESTERN on Nov. 23 ....
Little St. John’s of Minnesota is the first undefeated team of 1962.
The Johnnies have already completed their nine-game schedule with-
out a loss .... Dartmouth College is the stingiest team in the country
through the first six games. The Hanover Indians have allowed only
nine points .... Ex-heavyweight champion Floyd Patterson returned
last week from a tour of Europe. Patterson still smarting after the
defeat by Sonny Liston, wore dark glasses and a phony beard during
the trip .... E. E. “Rip” Miller, Navy’s assistant Director of Athletics
has seen all 36 NAVY-NOTRE DAME games. Rip also was the man
who talked Capt. Bill Busick into going to the Naval Academy 20
years ago. Capt. Busick is now Miller’s boss at the USNA .... The
International Amateur Basketball Federation has called off this
year’s World Championships. Scheduled for Manila, the games became
entangled in too much political red-tape .... Sam Snead, who is
defending the Canada Golf Cup Championship in Buenos Aires with
Arnold Palmer, is playing in Argentina for the first time in 21 years.
Time does fly l ... . The 3rd Missile Bowl, the inter-service unofficial
football championship, at Orlando, Florida, will match Ft. Benning
against either San Diego Marines OR Pensacola Navy. The game is
scheduled for December 15th .... ARMY, which closed out its home
season against OKLAHOMA STATE, has 13 different players in
the scoring column .... When the NEW YORK TITANS’ players
pay checks “bounced” last week, it caused one sage to remark, “It’s
the first time a pro team ever got less than a college club!”
Get Into The Habit
(Reprinted, from, the May 1960
APPROACH.)
Foreign object damage is a
bugaboo for which all concerned
with turbo-jet engines must be
constantly alert.
More engines require overhaul
for FOD than for any other single
cause.
Reams have been written on the
subject. Hours of backbreaking
bending to pick up trash and more
hours of sweeping have been con-
ducted.
Campaigns have been conduct-
ed to account for all tools and
hardware used in asembly.
Still foreign object damage oc-
curs regularly.
Unfortunately, nothing new can
be said on the subject. However,
we can remind you to continue
bending to pick up potential com-
pressor wreckers, to continue
sweeping, checking your tools,
your pockets, the places where
you lay nuts, bolts, washers, and
other hardware.
In other words get into the
habit of protecting compressor
rotors from FOD in every way
possible.
Columbia University research-
ers studying a group of accident-
free drivers found them to have
the following driving habits in
common: They always signal
when slowing down, stopping,
turning, and changing lanes; fre-
quently scan surrounding traffic;
are courteous to other motorists
and pedestrians; use good judg-
ment in passing and changing
lan'es; and drive so that their
passengers are always at ease.

pointing to Niagara Falls, “that

“Nope,” drawled the Texan,

An added treat in this week’s
telefare is THE BOB HOPE
SHOW, Sunday-at-7. The master
of comedy brings with him Ethel
Merman, Fabian, and his usual
bevy of beautiful stars.
Probably the tv-question of the
week is aimed at the schedule for
Thursday, Thanksgiving Day.
AFRTS-LA has provided viewers
with a prime selection of holiday
shows, not only for Thanksgiving,
but for the Christmas and New
Year holidays.
Channel 8 takes to the air on
Thursday at one p.m., with a
special show for children of all
ages. “Thanksgiving Parade Jub-
ilee” features Captain Kangaroo,
who takes viewers through a
“magic window” so that they may
see three great parades. New
York, Philadelphia, and Detroit
are the scenes, with drum corps,
clowns, bands, giant balloons,
space ships and all the excitement
of great parades.
Perry Como’s Music Hall takes
the two o’clock time spot with its
holiday and harvest show, set in
a barn. Gwen Verdon, Dorothy
Collins, the Kane Triplets, and
oomic Paul Lynde are some of the
guest in the hay loft.
A musical variety show is lined
up for three p.m. spot. “Home
For The Holidays” features Gor-
don MacRae, Patrice Munsel,
Carol Haney, A1 Hirt, the Broth-
ers Four, and a 9-year-old trump-
eter, Neil Rosengarten.
The four o’clock Bell Telephone
Hour has a title that explains
the nature of its entire offering:
“The Songs of Irving Berlin.”
Westinghouse Presents, at 8:30,
brings you “An Old Fashioned
Thanksgiving.” Charlton Heston,
Eddie Foy Jr., Dick Button, Betty
Johnson, the comi-caper team of
Bob and Ray, and even Bat Mast-
erson (Gene Barry) are all on
the show. The motif is Americana,
in music and dance, reflection our
country’s history and holiday.
The film report of the 1962
Boy Scout Jamboree has long been
in preparation and is finally ready
for its air-time. The “Thingvellir
Jamboree ’62” takes over televis-
ion on Tuesday-at-6:15. Scouts
from nine countries, some 2,500
of them, took part in the 13th Ice-
landic National Jamboree, which
also was the 50th anniversary of
scouting in Iceland.
A note for next week is that
DATELINE EUROPE will be re-
placed by OVERSEAS ADVEN-
TURE. About the only change in
the series are the title arid stars.
