You need a minimum of 90 psi for the motor to try and run. Sounds like the rings might be stuck in the piston.

If your not dead set on rebuilding this thing and just want to see if you can make it run : pour some diesel in both cylinders and give it a few days. It will free the rings and might get your compression up a bit.
At the same time it will swell your seals, although replacing them will be the best long term option.
