Christmas and the Ways It Is Celebrated ln. Countries All Around the Globe In all civilized countries, Christmas holds first place in importance. Its significance, along with the festivities which accompany it, give all people a feeling of gaiety, love, good will and sincerity. We, in the United States have been acquainted with Christmas as a giftgiving spree with less emphasis on the more sober side. This is not so in other countries.

Let us take a trip, so to speak, through some of the other countries on Christmas day and see what they are doing. We head East, across the Atlantic Ocean to perhaps Ireland in the British Isles. It is a rather chilly morning, maybe raining, the houses are decorated with holly, but few have Christmas trees. The people are visiting the various churches to which they belong.

The daily chores are done, the menfolk depart for a day of shooting grouse, or whatever it may be. When dinner rolls around, Christmas hats will be put on, turkey or goose will be served, with various delicacies like plum pudding, and fruit cake. Let us now travel to Fr~nce, where, it seems, Christmas is mainly for the children. Here we find the good old Christmas tree, but instead of stockings hung before the fireplace, there are wooden shoes. Carols are sung, which produce a gay aspect, like '' Mon Beau Sap in''

Noel and "Le Divine Enfant". Presents are given to the good children and brooms or whips to the bad ones by Saint Nicholas. Christmas carols play the first part in Czechoslovakia. We encounter the Czechoslovakians expressing their joy and sincerity through their songs, some of which are very old, having been handed down through the generations. We now arrive in Austria, the people are going to churches, using bright

Mitletoe's Part Changed by Years Long before Christ was born, mistletoe played a very important role in folklore. In Scandinavian mythology, the oak, on which m i s t 1 e t o e thrives, was a sacred tree, and anything on it divine. Mistletoe was cut, brought down with care so that it should not touch the ground. Finally it was hung in the doorway to ward. ·off evil spirits for the comin~ year. Now, it is very popular at Christmas, but it .serves an entirely different purpose. lights, to show the way. These lights are used in church to symbolize the eternal light. Candles are used at their homes too, these symbolizing the birth of the Christ Child. Origin of Gifts Our custom of gift giving is supposedly derived from Serbia, where the giving is significant of God's gift to Christ. Gift ~iving has been practiced "ilver smce the wise men laid their gifts at the feet of the Christ Child. In Italy ,we find there is no gayety. Christmas is a sober affair which involves the making of a scene of the birth of Christ. On Christmas, a d'oll representing the Christ Child is passed from one member of the household to another during prayer.

Again Christmas Seals Do Their Part in the Festive Season The approach of Christmas brings with it the appearance of familiar little stamps or seals that are almost as much of a sign of the Yuletide season as holly, mistletoe, and the Christmas tree. These little stamps are the Christmas seals the sale of which helps the year-round campaign against the insidious effects of tuberculosis. The story of how these Christmas seals began is a fascinating story of the love of mankind of a humble postmaster, an inspiration to all. Early in the year 1904, Einar Holboell, postmaster of a small town in Denmark, and himself a victim of dread tuberculosis, was struck with the idea that tuberculosis, part i c u l arly in children, could be combatted if we could get into the campaign against it. As he stamped his letters he conceived the idea of a stamp. If each person, during a short time of the year, would purchase an additional stamp at a very nominal cost, the total amount would still be sufficient to aid the cause.

throughout the globe. In some countries such as the Netherlands. Belgium and T_;uxemburg,

He Loved Chil'dren'

Einar Holboell, Danish postal. clerk, first thought ot using Christmas Seals to raise money to fight tuberculosis. The plight ot needy children in Copenhagen led him to promote the sale of Christmas Seals -40 years ago to help young victilll5' ot the disease.

for example, one may buy Christmas seals right in the post office by paying a slight additional amount beyond the cost of the usual postage stamp.

The custom of the Christmas tree is said to have come from Bavaria, where it is used as a symbol of Christ as the tree of Jife. But, in Bavaria, pine is the only tree that is used, for it is thought that it is tlJe only tree worthy of such an honor.

There is gift giving, yes, but not in the build a new promiscuous fashion so common Noel here. Nor is there a Christmas tree except in those countries South of the Border which are now influenced by the United States. Instead of the symbolic tree, Spanish countries, like France, spend their efforts in a display of the nativity. This is true in all homes whether it be only a simple display with just the figures of Joseph, Mary and the Infant Jesus, or an elaborate and expensive display of figures, including the Three Kings, Shepherds, animals in the manger, and other symbolic features. The figures which go to make up the depiction of the nativity in the Spanish home are not bought or made each year. They

Hannukah, Old Festival of Dedication One of the Holy Days celebrated by the Jews is the Hanukkah, or the Festival of T_;ights. This takes place about the same time we celebrate Christmas. In 165 B.C., during the time the Syrians occupied Palestine, the Temple of Jerusalem was in the hands of the enemy. For three years, Syrian troops were quartered in this Temple. A small Jewish army became victorious and drove out the Syrians, leaving the Jews free to worship according to their own beliefs. ' was the · One of the first acts purification of the Temple and the dedication of a new altar. This is the event celebrated by Hanukkah. It became the custom for each household to light the Menorah, their traditional candelabrum with seven candlesticks, for seven consecutive days. This display of lights was placed in a prominent window. This custom is still celebrated and it is a happy time for the children, as it is an occasion for masquerades and skits, parties, and in particular it is the season to eat the aromatic Hanukkah foods-pancakes. Also, the spirit of kindnes and joy is expressed by the presentation of gifts to loved ones.

It promises to be a rush night for Cupid's little darts. Adding importance to the occasion will be an impressive list of honored guests, including the president and deans of the college, the members of the governing board and their wives, in. addition to other prominent figures from within the district.

Balboa Explorers Trounce Palomar; Hand Hoopsters Initial Loss of Season .\ game but outmanned Comet hoop ::;quad gave in to the visiting l'niversity Explorers on the I~'allbrook High School hardwood Dec. 5, to the tune of 56~ 32. Facing a green squad made up of all freshmen and only one wphomore, the experienced Balboa quintet, considered a basketball power among the smaller <•olleges of the Southland, literally ran away from the ~mall Palomar team. Basketball is the sport speeialty at Balboa UHiversity. 'i'lwi;· squad ha::; been practicing for the last three months. They alrrady have several games tuck(ld away uuder their belts. Altho~l~h this is only their second win of the season, their losses c.amr from three of the outstanding small college fives on the \ ·est Coast namely : Redlands University, Santa Barbar;, State, and Chapman Colle{Zt'

The final half was a walkaway with the ExplorE-rs showing the way. Their exprrience and manpower were too much for thr Comets who were hampered by the injury of Xorm Kettering, only returning lrtt<'rman from last year's squad. Duane Boyle turned in a vrrv creditable p~rformance from his pivot spot whrrc he dumprd in 10 points to lead tl1e Palomar scoring.

Remaining undefeated, the Comet casaba tPam defeated the I<'allbrook Town Team 42-22 last December 1.

Conference Cage Tourney Begins Friday; Locals Face Antelope Valley Oceanside College again plays host to the second Annual South Central Conference Basketball Tournament to be held December 16-17 in the Oceanside gym. The six teams of the conference will be entered which include Palo Verde, Palomar, Citrus, Antelope Valley, El Centro, and Oceanside. Last year saw the Central Arabs absent from the tourney since they had accepted a bid to the Chaffey Junior College Tournament. As a fill-in for the Arabs, the Del Mar Marines took their place. On the basis of last year's record, Palo Verde, ·winner of the 1948 tourney and conference champions looms as the t<:'am to b<:'at. Challenging them for first place honors will be the host team, Oceanside, reported to be loadrd with talrnt this year. The dar·k horses in the tourney seem to be El Crntro and Citrus. The first game gets under way Friday aftemoon at 2 :00 pitting- thr Citrus Owls against thr C'rntn1l Arabs. The second fracus matches Palomar against the .\ntelopr Valle~' ?11auradrrs at. 8 :Hi. Palo Verde and Ocean,..,ide draw byes and will meet the winners of the first and second aftrrnoon gamrs respectively that rvrning. The consolation round begins Saturday afternoon with both the championship and consolation matches being played Saturday evening. Three beautiful trophies will be awarded ag-ain this year, namely: Championship trophy, Runner-up trophy, and Consolation trophy. An all-tournament will probably be chosen by the conference coaches but they will not receive indiv'idual awardc;. Coach Val Vilra will take a 14 man squad to the tourney in

hopes of returning with some glory. The tentative starting lineup for the Comets will probably be Ronald Kenney and Mickey Robinson, forwards; Duane Boyle, center; Norm Kettering and Dave Miranda, guards. The starting five will be ably bolstered by Ed Johnson, Dick Nelson, .Jim Galt, Leroy Hansen, and Ray Garcia. In last year's tournament the ( ' omets were defeated in ' the first round of play by Oceanside 40-31, and knocked out of the consolation by Antelope Valley 59-40.

THE

Marines Humble Comets, 73-22 Palomar's basketeers suffered their worst defeat in the history of the college last Saturday night when the Camp Pendleton Marines manhandled the Comet quintet handing them their second consecutive loss, 73-22. Playing in the Pendleton gym, the Marines scored practically at will using a total of 22 men. Sixteen of these managed to find the scoring range. For the second time in as many weeks, the local cagers had taken on too big of a chore, that of playing a far superior team. The Comets were greatly hampered by the absence of first string guard, Ed Johnson. Minus the leadership of Johnson, ·the locals had poor team work. The passes were bad, the defense was ragged, their shooting-eyes were dead cold. Of a total of 56 shots, there were only eight field goals dropped in. From the free throw line, only six of 24 were made. Duane Boyle missed 6 to ' 7 and Dave I Miranda tossed away 5 out of 8. High point man for the game was Pendleton's flashy Negro forward, Herbert Johnson, who bucketed 13. Top man for the locals was Captain Norm Kettering with seven digits. Ketering fouled out late in the last half. Pendleton and Palomar meet again Juanry 18 on the Oceanside High School hardwood. A bit of consolation for the drubbing was offered by the Marines who treated the team, their girl friends and guests to a dinner of enormous t-bone steaks. Halftime: Pendleton, 35; Palomar, 9.

Oceanside, El Centro Dominate All-Foe Oceanside and El Centro dominated Palomar's all-opponent team with the Pirates winning five spots and the Arabs four. One man each from Citrus and Antelope Valley won the other two positions. Palo Verde, conference co-champions, failed to land a man since the Comets did not meet the boys from Blythe due to a forfeit. Those representing Oceanside were Burke, end; Christoperson, tackle; Trombetta, guard; Suster and Nicolai, backs. From El Centro's squad were: Kurupas, end; Crabtree, guaPd; Gresham, center; and J a c k son , back. Rounding out the team were \Vaddle, tackle from Antelope Valley, and Ellis, back from Citrus. Christopherson and S u s t e r were selected as the outstanding lineman and back respectively. Both played a major part in Oceanside's 26-6 rout of Palomar. ·w ith Christopherson a bulwark on defense and paving the way for the ball carriers on offense, Suster 4 managed to get away for 71 yards and score two touchdowns. Christopherson was also honored by being chosen by East L. A.'s powerhouse on their all-opponent eleven. Following is tl complete allfoe team selected by the members ·of the 1949 Palomar football squad. E-Burke, Oceanside. E-Kurupas, Central. T-Christoplterson, 0 c e a n side. T-Waddle, Antelope Valley.

One of the highest honors that can be bestowed upon a Palomar athlete is to be acclaimed the outstanding athlete in his sport. How is he honored? The boy who receives the acclaim of his teammates has the right to have his name entered upon Palomar's Outstanding Award blanket. He also receives a small miniature of the blanket. This form of award, a red wool blanket bordered in grey, was fir~;t sponsored by the Escondido Kiwanis Club in 1947. It is a full size blanket with the four major sports, football, basketball, baseball, and track, each occupying a corner. Tennis is situated in the center. Across the top of the blanket in a crescent shape, it reads: Palomar Outstanding A thlctes. All the lettering is don<.' in grey. 'l'he last names to be entered in the four major sports were: Lee Andrson, football ; Clint Smith, basketball and baseball; and Ray Ferris, track. Succeeding Anderson as the outstanding athlete in football is Ed .Johnson, selected this year as the most valuable playrr by his teammates.

K~ights Service (Continued fro m Page Three) by the Knights' ladies. Arrangements have been made to have similar corsages for all the girls being escorted by the Knights. Anyone who misses this dance will be cheating himself out Qf an unforgettable evening. Bi~ can be obtained from Josie Rub io or one of the K nights i,n the bookstore.
