Fall is traditionally a popular season tor home entertainment and especially for card games. This autumn there's a fascinating new card game that's made to order for the smart hostess who likes to use her imagination. Tt's called Calypso. Calypso, t h e c a r d game, comes to us from the romantic i s l a n d of Trinidad in the British West Indies, best known for its brilliantly costumed natives and multisyllabled Calypso songs. The hostess with ingenuity can capture some of the true flavor of this island paradise by softly playing popular Calypso records on her phonograph or hi-fi record player while her guests are enjoying the delightful card game or later while refreshments are being served. The new card game is also perfect for the inventive hostess who likes colorful and unusual table decorations. Favors of pirate hats and varicolored scarves will conjure up the romance and flamboyance of the old Spanish Main where buccaneers, plundered the rich Spanish galleons loaded with gold from the World. Inexpensive colorful paper streamers will serve as a reminder of the decor favored by the natives in the land of tiie Trade Winds. f thegard Even without tthhe€ ifaannccy decorations and the West Indian folk music. Calypso will have your guests talking for weeks to come. They'll remember the excitement of this new card game--the first to give each player his own personal trump suit They 11 remember Calypso as a game that is easy to learn but one that offers plenty of opportune ties for defensive play, a characteristic which skillful card players recognize as the hallmark of a good card game. Most of all, though, they'll talk about you as an imaginative and fashionable hostess.
