My .mpg looks squished in VirtualDubMod and DGIndex

Source: mpg file
Desired outcome: VirtualDubMod displaying my mpg properly so that I can clip .avi files from it
Problem: VirtualDubMod is reading the file as 720X480 but it looks squished vertically (see below--yes, JPad should be EVEN WIDER than he is) 
I tried to open it in DGIndex and got the same squish.
I would love an avisynth scripting fix or (even better) a plug-in that works

 <--He should be EVEN WIDER


Any thoughts much appreciated.

LanczosResize(640,480)

That probably because you can tell vegas that the clip is NTSC 16:9 anamorphic and it will do the scaling for you. You should look into that as that's the more 'correct' way to do it.
