Squirrel Set For Winter In‘SUn Room

BALTIMORE i APi—Whiskers won't be going to Frederick this winte- after all.

Instead. the live - month - old Iqutrrel is comfortabiv situated

the sun room at Villa Pace. the‘ home of retired opera star Rose Ponselle.

Miss Ponselle rescued Whisk-

ers last summer when. as a tiny

ball. he tumbled from a tree workmen felled on her estate.

Then, as the squirrel got older, she decided to give him. to Frederick in western Mary- land, which boasts a huge out- door squirrel cage in its park.

the recent cold snap changed her mind. She was afraid Whiskers might not sur- vive the rigors of outdoor living.

So Tuesday. Whiskers moved into his new quarters in the sun room—a specially built cage seven feet high. seven feet wide and three feet deep. complete with a huge tree limb and a dish of cracked nuts.

“He could crack them him- self," Miss Ponselle said. “but I wouldn't want him to strain himself."
