Try this:
/* REXX to display day of the week Christmas falls on. */
/*********************************************/
arg year
if year = "" then year = right(date(),4)
dec25 = date("B",year"1225","S")//7
select
when dec25 = 0 then day = "Monday"
when dec25 = 1 then day = "Tuesday"
when dec25 = 2 then day = "Wednesday"
when dec25 = 3 then day = "Thursday"
when dec25 = 4 then day = "Friday"
when dec25 = 5 then day = "Saturday"
otherwise day = "Sunday"
end
say "In the year "year", Christmas day falls on "day
EXIT
Hope that helps,
