From Tokyo to West Berlin,
from BuenoS Aires to Copen-
hagen-and even in the cities
of Russia and the satellite
countries = the glow of the
Christmas spirit spreads
around the world, for Christ
mas is truly a universal holi-
day.
The legends and traditions
gathered about it are many,
and customs can, and do, vary
from country to country. All
nations, through their folk
lore, have made their special
contributions to the tradition
al ways of celebrating the
birthday of Christ.
When the customs of one
country are compared with
another, it's sometimes hard
to believe that the same holi-
day is being commemorated!
How to Say 1t
Along with the different
ways of observing Christmas,

words mean, Merry Christ

the variety of Christmas Gus
toms. Though the peoples of
many lands have unique Yule
traditions, each is a way of
expressing the spirit of Christ
mas a spirit that is the
same everywhere, in every
place and time.
At Christmas, the thoughts
of people around the world
turn to the joys Of home, of
being with family and friends
the merriment of feasting and
parties, the pleasures of giving
and receiving gifts, the salts
factions of helping others. The
affirmation of faith, the re-
neWed promise of life eternal
and the hope for peace on
earth, good will toward all
men, bring spiritual rewards
IN a season of worship and

FOREST HILLS, N. Y, Sept.
6.-Donald Dell of Bethesda,
Md. projected himself into the
fluid Davis Cup squad picture
yesterday by scoring the most
important victory of his tennis
career.
Dell defeated sixth-seeded
Frank Froehling, jr., of Coral
Gables, Fla, 11-9. 1913, 81,
in the third round Of the ma
tional championship after a
torrid two-hour service battle.
Dell is a definite possibility
for the Davis Cup team that
will play India ip the interzone
finals" Dave Freed, captain of
the United States team, told
The Star today.
The time and place of the in
terzone finals is expected to be
announced soon. The winner
will face Australia in the chal-
lenge round in December.
Favored in Fourth Round
Dell, who has been set to
enter the University of Vir-
GINA Law School this month,
said he would give serious
thought to an invitation to
play on the Davis Cup team. He
added that it would have to
come before the school term
begins.
BY defeating Froehling the
Edgemoor CLUB star entered
the fourth round at the West
Side Tennis Club as the favor
lite against John Sharpe of
Australia. If he wins as eX-
pected he'll move into the
quarter-f finals, where his likely
opponent would face Wimble-
don Champion Rod LAYER of
Australia
For Dell, who took a year
off to play the world tennis
circuit after graduating from
Yale in 1860, the victory over
Froehling was extremely graft
flying. 1t reversed their only
other encounter, when the 49,
year-old Florida youth took
Dell's measure at the Pennsyl-
vania championships in July.
1t also brought Don forcibly to
the attention of the Davis Cup
Committee, which had over
looked naming him to the team
in the Davis Cup ties even
though he had reached the
finals of the National Clay
Court championships at Evans
ton, Ill. two months ago.
The Bethesda youth also had
been by-passed in the seedlings
here despite his No. 9 National
ranking last year.
During the tense first set
against Froehling, the Bethesda
players cause appeared hope
less as he could not do much
more than wave his racket at
the lightning services the s.
foot-4 Froehling blasted into
court. In the first seven games
the lanky Coral Gables youth
served Dell won exactly three
points, an amazing perform
ance for top-flight tennis.
Meanwhile, Don was fight
ing doggedly to hold his own
delivery, which fortunately was
at its best. In the seventh
game Froehling twice had point
game, only to have Dell force
him into errors. Two games
later Don was down, $40, and
again he responded by winning
four points in a row to salvage
the game. Froehling had two
more opportunities in the 18th
game, but was turned back both
times by sterling play on Don's
part.
Dell first began to return
