Dr. Taber explained his associate came because he was attending to an emergency at another hospital.

Airline 2 Days in Ro SAN DIEGO, gunman hijacked a Pacific Southwest Airlines (PSA) jetliner with 57 persons aboard late Thursday, forced it to land here, collected $455,000 ransom and took off with only the crew and two hostages. The hijacker ordered and received a parachute and handcuffs. The air drama began in the skies over Northern California in the evening. The PSA flight originated in San Diego and was bound for Sacramento.

The hostages were identified by the Federal Aviation Administration as Jim Williams and Lloyd G. Turner, a California Highway Patrol officer in plainclothes and armed with a revolver. The FAA said both men were volunteers and the air pirate did not know Turner was a law enforcement officer. The plane landed at Lindbergh Field here after the hijacker commandeered it and ordered it flown here. It landed and taxied to a remote section of the field.

A PSA spokesman said there was "no panic" aboard the plane and all passengers were "fine." They deplaned and were ussed to the terminal. FBI agents said the sky pirate, a white male, had not told the plane's crew where he wanted to be flown. They said he had demanded one parachute. The man said he wanted the money for "two organizations involved in the Mideast crisis." This was the second hijack of a PSA plane in 48 hours. Two men Wednesday commandeered a PSA Boeing 737 on a flight from Sacramento to San Francisco.

The two men along with a passenger were killed in a shoot-out with FBI agents at San Francisco International Airport. rival forces to battle the issue at the Democratic National Convention. it remained unclear whether the courts or the convention would deliver the ulti-: mate verdict in a delegate-. seating dispute crucial to the presidential nomination.

Of the 271 California delegates, 153 are at stake, and on them hinge McGovern's hopes for first-ballot victory in his quest for White House nomination. Chief Justice Warren E.

Burger stayed implementation of a lower court ruling returning to McGovern the votes the Democratic Credentials Committee took away. Burger was contacting the other eight justices to determine whether there was sufficient support for an extrador-dinary special session of the court, something that has happened only three times before. Late Thursday a spokesman announced that no decision would be made on the matter before Friday. Pierre Salinger, a McGovern aide, said the front-runner's forces are operating on the assumption that there will be a convention vote on the seating issue. That means counting delegates, checking commitments, and applying political persuasion.

Both sides were at it. "We think we have the votes to win," Salinger said. Mike Maloney, a top Humphrey strategist, claimed "the coalition majority" of rivals and critics aligned against McGovern would fashion a substantial margin to Please turn to Page 5A, Col. 1 and West Grand Boulevard.
