I think this command will do what you want:
(defun kill-to-non-blank ()
"kill to 1st non blank (after blank) to right"
(interactive "*")
(kill-region (point) (progn (forward-to-non-blank) (point))))
(defun forward-to-non-blank ()
"go to 1st non blank (after blank) to right"
(interactive)
(if (re-search-forward "[ \t\n][^ \t\n]" (point-max) t)
(backward-char 1)))
I assign it to [C-delete] i.e.
(define-key global-map '[C-delete] 'kill-to-non-blank)
One hint: on some X-terminals the keypad delete is [C-kp-decimal].
Ehud.
