Services May 4, 1 pm at Douglass A couple of storm fronts moving in tandem across Northern and Central California are not expected to bring rain to the southern part of the state, but the weather will be cooler and cloudier through the weekend. At most, the National Weather Service said Thursday, there could be some drizzles near the mountains early today. Orange County's high temperature today should be 66 to 70 degrees, as the marine air layer penetrates farther inland. Morning cloudiness should give way to some afternoon sunshine, but not much.

Saturday should be about the same. The high temperature in Santa Ana on Thursday was 72. The beaches had highs of only 64. Relative humidity ranged from 81 to 46. It will be cooler and windy in the deserts and the mountains through the weekend.

April turned out to be unusually dry and warm, the weather service noted, allowing the area to slip behind in rainfall. Only scattered showers appeared during April, leaving the season's total at slightly more than 12 inches, about 2 inches below normal, but a couple of inches over last season's total for the date. By BURT A. F0LKART, Times Staff Writer Arthur C. Hohmann, the lantern -jawed Marine veteran who reshaped and reformed Los Angeles' scandal-ridden police department in 1939, then fell from grace and was demoted only two years later, has died in Mariposa, it was learned Thursday.

Hohmann was 89 when his car rolled into a ditch as he was on his way to visit friends. News of his death, on April 9, went unreported. When he retired in 1960, after 35 years with the police, it was as deputy chief in charge of the unheralded technical services bureau. It was a quiet end to a tumultuous career in which Hohmann, as chief: In a two-day period in 1939 abolished 398 acting Police Department positions and promoted, demoted or transferred nearly 500 other officers. Restructured the city's 14 patrol divisions into six, a move he said was patterned after a military staff operation.

Abolished the vice squad and replaced it with a task force of 18 men who drove around the city ferreting out gambling. Hohmann promised to lead the raids himself if that effort failed. Wanted to fingerprint and photograph every resident of Los Angeles, to expedite arrest procedures. Although known as a stickler for discipline, he eventually became much admired by his officers. When the wide swath he had cut finally resulted in city officials demanding his ouster, one said publicly, "We at uunaway mortuary, nawinornc.

Northridge 818886-8600 are not going to tear down the whole house to repair a few faulty shingles." The "house" Hohmann was named to reconstruct in 1939 was sadly in need of repair. Mayor Fletcher Bowron had been elected in 1938 after the recall of Frank Shaw, who was charged with turning his back on widespread gambling and graft throughout the city. Although Bowron soon turned on Hohmann, he at first supported his appointment, saying he was aware of widespread graft within the Police Department and urging Hohmann to end it. Hohmann, the 39th police chief in 60 years, did not wait long. He had drawn up the department's first manual of operations as a lieutenant in the early 1930s.

He replaced the 14 captains then in charge of the precincts with three hand-picked associates, two of whom had finished just behind him in the competitive examination for chief. He began rotating department personnel every 90 days, to prevent graft from flourishing, and once even proposed to outlaw hitchhiking as a means of fighting crime. He brought detectives from outlying areas into central headquarters, where he could better monitor their investigations, and promoted officers many regarded as inexperienced, in an effort to bring new blood to top positions. By early 1941, he was in trouble politically. Bowron had hired a Chicago investigator to conduct his own probe of the city and, according to a grand jury transcript, the investigator, Wallace N.

Jamie, had tapped telephones and made illegal recordings of conversations. "Hohmann was a stickler for discipline, a guy who wanted things done right," said Norman Jacoby, a veteran police reporter of that era. "Bowron wanted things done, but he wanted them done his way." By June, 1941, Bowron, encouraged by many of his City Hall aides, had succeeded in ousting Hohmann. He was replaced by Chief Clemence B. Horrall, who retired in 1949.

Hohmann was demoted to his old rank of lieutenant, but won a court fight for reinstatement as deputy chief. He was sent to technical services in 1945. His survivors include two sons, Robert and William. CERNIGLIA, Laura survived by sons, Joseph, Dr. Donald and Ralph; 15 grandchildren and 16 greatgrandchildren.
