3058 Acacia, Block West of custody yesterday after District Attorney Jerome B. Kavanaugh announced that no superior court information would be filed against the defendant in connection with the death of an elderly desert miner. The prosecutor said the case was being dropped because of the lack of evidence. lie added that yesterday was the last day on which the state could legally file an information against Spolyar. BATTERED BODY FOUND Spolyar was originally accused of the slaying of Ray R.

Creed, 61, whose battered body was discovered on July 21 alongside a dirt road on Soda dry lake, three miles south of Baker. Officers said Spolyar's car was found stuck in sand and brush less than a mile from Baker and two miles from the spot where Creed's body was discovered. They stated that blood and hair were found in the undercarriage of the automobile. A coroner's physician said Creed had been run over by a car several times and ho expressed the further opinion that the miner had been bludgeoned to death before he was run over. A murder charge was filed against Spolyar, but he was bound over to superior court only on a manslaughter charge following preliminary hearing.

ADMITTED DRINKING Spolyar purportedly admitted to officers that he had been with Creed on a pre-dawn drinking bout the day of the miner's death, but stated he was so drunk he didn't know what had happened. In dropping the case yesterday in Superior Judge Martin J. Coughlin's court, Mr. Kavanaugh said the move was taken because of Hie lack of evidence. "We couldn't prove Creed was murdered or otherwise unlawfully killed, nor could we prove who did it.

"There was violently conflicting testimony as to the cause of death. We have thoroughly gone into the case and there is nothing on which to base a criminal charge against the defendant in superior court." New Scout Executive Edward H.
