Soak in some form of penetrating oil and use a screw extractor (Sears or Home
Depot)If that doesn't work, remove as much of the head as you can and pry the
parts apart. You can then remove what is left of the screw with a vice grip
and penetrating oil. Start by going in the tight direction a little first to
break the rust bond then the loose direction to remove.
Good luck
