Marcus Cornutt, 30 years of age, was in a critical condition tonight at St. Joseph's Hospital at Orange as a result of burns suffered late today when a still exploded at the Socal Refining Company's plant here. A sheet of flame enveloped Cornutt following the explosion, which occurred while he was heating road oil on the still. He rolled in a mud bank near by and extinguished the flames.

Police Chief E. A.

West was supposed to go to court yesterday as a sequel to the fray but he was too seriously hurt his physician said. The whole fight concerns the question: Which of the two Police Chiefs Chief West or Chief Thomas J. Potter really is entitled to the job? FLATFEET ON SPOT Personally, my sympathy all goes out to the poor cops on the beat in a case like this. Just suppose you were Patrolman Jones, for instance. You get called to the office of the chiefs.

"Officer Jones," says Chief No. 1, "go out and arrest Mayor Smith and bring him in." Officer Jones," says Police Chief No. 3. "go out and form a bodyguard for Mayor Smith and don't let anybody bother him." Boy, I pity the poor flatfoot! INDEPENDENT STUDENTS Students out at the University of Redlands have Just thrown all their professors out on their ears in a manner of speaking. Of course, the pedagogues (it's absolutely essential to use that word at least once when writing-about a university) the pedagogues are still going to be allowed to conduct classes.

But they are "out" as far as student affairs are concerned. The boys and girls have voted to eliminate all faculty members of the student finance board. HOW ABOUT A LOAN? Won't it be kind of embarrassing for a student to meet the economics professor after a slap like this? Particularly if the student wants to borrow 15 cents for lunch! DRAWING THE LINE Pasadena has Just chosen the subject "Romance in Flowers" as the theme of its 1937 Tournament of Roses. This presumably will include Dante and Beatrice. Romeo and Juliet, Abelard and Heloise, Marc Antony and Cleopatria.

My only prayer is that we will be spared a float depicting the Immortal saga of "Ma" Kennedy and "What-a-man" Hudson, EXPANDING OXNARD A magnificent dream is -flowering up Oxnard way. Oxnnrd may become a big seaport city. You didn't know that, did you? It has all happened very quietly, quite recently. In an election May 11 Oxnard will decide whether it wants to annex a four-mile shoestring strip to link it with the sea at Hueneme and thus make it a "seacoasf city. If the voters say "yes" Oxnard then will be eligible for the $792,000 Federal harbor loan which so far has been refused to Hueneme alone.

A TOUGH ONE TO SAY My own idea about the matter aside from the fact that it would be a fine thing for Southern California to have a harbor up there is that nobody in Washington could pronounce Hueneme anyway and the demand was made that the project's sponsors get a city with a simpler name to ask for the money. By the way, how DO you pronounce Hueneme? I learned last week but I've forgotten again. NAUTICAL INFLUENCE An Anaheim high school boy named Jack Dudley has Just won the poster contest at Newport Harbor. The winning poster will be used to advertise Newport-Balboa's big celebration May 23 and 24 marking completion of the $2,000,000 pleasure harbor.

Recently elected to the City Council for four years, and more recently appointed postmaster, the Mayor wants to resign, but can't. Under Federal regulations a postmaster Is prohibited from holding any municipal position, and consequently Mr. Hogue resigned as Mayor. But before he can resign, he must first be confirmed as City Councilman, and when the Council met last week the Mayor was nowhere to be found. Now until the next regular session, May 5, Mr.

Hogue continues as Mayor of Brea. At that time the Council will accept his resignation, name a new member, and elect a new Mayor. It is understood that position will- go to William D. Shaffer, oil man. his ankle.
