"She just moved In," he explained. "We told her she was there without authority. When we get ready to tear down her building, we will do so." THOMPSON said her building would be torn down last in the hope "she'll see the light and get out before we have to act." Mrs. Winsor remains adamant, however.

National Park service officials are nonplussed by the unusual situation. They are afraid they may have to carry her bodily from the premises, something they'd like to avoid. The determined woman who refuses to be evicted is Mrs.

Ann Winsor. She has been occupying for more than three years a condemned structure smack on the right-of-way of the proposed fourj lane Washington Memorial parkway extension. What's more, she's never paid any rent for the cottage In which, she lives. "They've never sent me a rent bill," she explained. Mrs.

One of Mrs. Winsor's prize possessions, a Japanese bathtub, is outdoors. In the yard, almost hidden by honeysuckle, i a small Japanese garden, with pagodas, figurines and a bronze peacock. Mrs. Winsor maintains there is no need to tear down her structure.

"Why don't they just fix it up and leave it here?" she asked. "It wouldn't bother all those people whizzing by on that million-dollar parkway." Meanwhile, the wrecking crews are coming closer and closer. Mrs. Winsor won't move. THE SITE is a stretch of land between the old Chesapeake and Ohio canal, and the Potomac river.

The land was purchased some years ago and made part of the federal park system. It is a virtual wilderness. Mrs. Winsor said the senator, whom she did not identify, said to her one day, "What could happen if you moved in?" Mrs. Winsor is an artist and interior decorator and had expressed to the senator an interest in living in one of the abandoned cottages so she could pursue her work away from the capital clamor.

When she met the senator again a week later, he asked her if she had moved in. "Of course not," she replied. "Well, whatvvould happen if you just moved in?" he repeated. "Understand, I'm not suggesting that you 'do. I'm just trying to help you." She moved in and she has been there ever since.

She suggested to the Park service that several of the unoccupied structures be used to aid convalescing veterans. Her plan called for classes in creative painting, music and poetry in surroundings "close to nature." However, -the Park service turned her down. They said the structures were unsafe for human habitation and unsanitary. They termed them chicken coops and shanties. Mrs.

Winsor appealed to the secretary of the interior, but was rebuffed. Now the government wants her to vacate, but Mrs. Winsor says she is still hopeful she can convince the proper authorities her plan is sound.
