But they and 39 other title contenders, who shoved into the second round, yielded the . day's limelight to Maxine Hammond and Victor Santa Maria, a pair of medalist bust ers, at Rogue Valley Country cluhr. Mrs. Hammond, Medford, is a veteran and perennial strong contender in the South ern Oregon classic. Over the years she's rJeen a trouble some rival for some of the top Senior men's and wom en's championship flight participants are among those getting a day of rest today but they'll go into quarter-finals on Saturday.

Yester day, she gained a measure of the laurels that have oft elud ed her by ousting Shirley Siegmund, Eugene, ladies' low qualifier, 2 and 1. Mrs. Ham mond gained a wide lead then held on as a stirring rally by the No. 1 seeded University of Oregon lass fell short. Buck Defeated Santa Maria, ex-Navy man and recent grad of Chico State college, tumbled Dr. Robert Buck, Medford, 1 up. The Calif ornian by way of New York overcame a 2 up - deficit and went ahead for keeps when the Ashland city champion chipped past No. 17 hole for a bogey. Buck had "stroked a 71 in qualifying play to knot with Holmes, a fellow Medfordite, for men's medalist honors. Getchell and Clark tri umphed each with a , fair amount of ease during a day marked by some fine golf and by some dogged competition exemplified by six extra-hole champion flight matches, one a 23-greener. Phil, of Medford, ex-Stanford University linkster, seek ing a repeat of his 1957 men's toga, was one over par and had a 4 up lead after nine holes on his way to a 6 and 5 triumph over Carl Bennet, Grants Pass.

Jerry Cundari, Portland, with one below par, and Bob Norquist and Rick Cooney, Portland, with even par, in the men's division, and Rob ert Henningsen, Astoria in the senior scrap, were among yes terdays hot performers. Cun dari beat Bob Phillips, Med ford, 7 and 5; Norquist trimmed Glenn Groth, Seattle, 7 and 6 and Cooney whipped Jim Abbott, Portland 3 and 2. Henningsen, second seeded senior, sparkled in a 7 and 6 romp over Harold Inches, Portland. He required just 10 putts on the first nine holes. Miller Goes 23 Dr. William Miller, Medl ford, won the men's marathon i of the day taking the 23-hole go from John Jensen, also of Rogue Valley.
