Maynard's statement ended two days of speculation during which the death of the mother of five was linked with the kill the largest of any of the primaries. Rockefeller has done everything he can to make it a clear- he hasn't changed his assessment. Goldwater hasn't really begun to campaign in California. He's scheduled for speaking engagements in San Francisco and Sacramento on Lincoln's birthday, Feb. 12, but no extended tour is planned until March 13-21.

Goldwater has expressed minimum concern over the fact that Kuchel has joined with Rockefeller.

State GOP factions are lining Republican presidential primary before the GOP national convention in July will be held in California. The prize for the winner is the state's 86 convention votes, the largest in the nation's primaries. New York's Gov. Nelson A. Rockefeller and Arizona Sen.

Barry Goldwater will be battling for this tempting plum. The following second of three articles by AP political writers on the primaries in New Hampshire, California and Oregon gives the picture in California. By MORRIE LANDSBERG SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP)-On a cold, foggy night last week, a campaign took shape, and the complexion of California's Republican presidential primary began to change. Several thousand people lined up on a road leading to an already jam-packed country club in the hills across the Golden Gate from San Francisco.

They were waiting their turn to get in and greet Gov. and Mrs. Nelson A. Rockefeller of New York. Kuchel outpolled the combined total of two party foes in the 1902 primary by 900.00& up accordingly.

Rockefeller pointed it up by bringing in Sen. Thomas H. Kuchel, known as a party liberal and a good vote-getter, to captain his state campaign and the prospective convention delegation.

Kuchel, who fought off efforts by GOP conservatives to defeat him in 1962, heads a committee that includes supporters of for votes. He defeated the Democratic candidate in November by 700,000. Rockefeller spent three days in California last week, mainly to get acquainted with and fire up his campaign troups. He drew good crowds, met privately with groups of top-ranking financiers, and went about the handshaking routine with smiling fervor. 'The momentum is just starting," he told newsmen.

Knight and former San Francisco Mayor George Christopher are members. Goldwater clearly was the early front-runner. A "Draft Goldwater" movement was launched nearly a year ago and he was organized here far in advance of Rockefeller. He was urged to run by the conservative United Republicans of California, which lists 5,000 members. The Arizona senator may have slipped in popularity since the death of President John F.

On Thursday he was doing a front-end job with all the assurance of an older mechanic. 'Go Back Quickly' "Yes," he said, "I would advise anyone who has left school to go back just as quickly as possible." He thinks 16- and 17-year-olds who drop out can fit into the pattern of school life with no trouble if they return.

Barry Goldwater of Arizona. The New Yorker beamed between handshakes when told it was the greatest political turnout in Marin County history. Estimates ranged from 5,000 to 10,000.

The reception, in an area that always supported Richard M. Nixon warmly, stood out in sharp contrast to the cool response to Rockefeller's visits before he became a formal candidate for the GOP presidential nomination. Together with the solid campaign team put together by the governor's managers, it served notice that Goldwater faces perhaps his most critical precon-vention fight of all in a state once rated his territory.

Warren figured in both contests since 1932, defeating an Alf M. Landon group in 1936 and a right-wing faction in 1952. State Republican leaders welcomed the Goldwater-Rockefel-ler contest. But they made no attempt to hide their concern over what it might do to a party already beset with factional squabbling. "Business has been bad here," Jaluska continued.
