The defendant Leroy Wayne Earp was convicted of murder in the first degree and appeals.
The defendant primarily contends that the trial court committed error in permitting detective Thompson of the Portland Police Department to testify as to statements made by the defendant in a four hour trip from Pendleton, Oregon (where the defendant had been apprehended and arrested) to Portland, Oregon. Further, that the trial court committed error in permitting the police officers to testify regarding admissions made by the defendant while with the officers near the scene of the crime.
The undisputed facts insofar as they apply to the above questions are that the murder of which defendant was convicted was committed in Portland. The offense occurred sometime early on the morning of August 3, 1965. The defendant arrived home early that morning and his wife learned of the body in his ear. He and his wife drove to defendant’s sister’s house where he asked for money and when asked why he wanted the money he stated he “had killed a girl last night” and “with these,” indicating his hands. *21He then took a cab to the bns station and purchased a ticket for Laramie, "Wyoming. He left the bus at Pendleton and registered at a motel as “Lee Wharfield.”
The defendant’s step-father apprised himself of the body in defendant’s automobile and called the police. A warrant for murder was then issued and defendant was arrested at his motel room in Pendleton at 8:20 p.m. by a Pendleton police officer. He was taken to the Umatilla County jail and booked. Defendant asked to make a telephone call and was permitted to do so.
At approximately 12:20 a.m. Wednesday, August 4th, 1965, two Portland detectives, Thompson and Tho-mine, arrived at the Pendleton jail for the purpose of transporting defendant to Portland.
Defendant was informed of the charge against him and of his constitutional rights, including a statement that he did not have to answer questions until such time as he had talked to an attorney. He informed the detectives that he wanted an attorney, but did not wish to call one at this time. His wife and sister had arrived in Pendleton and he was permitted to visit with them. After eating a sandwich and drinking coffee he left with the officers at about 2:00 a.m. Detective Thompson and defendant were seated in the back seat of the automobile and Sergeant Thomine drove. On the way to Portland the defendant described his activities on the night leading up to the death of the girl to detective Thompson and asked if his car had been towed in. The officer told him he didn’t know, then recalled that it must have been towed in as he “had heard someone ask about the spare tire and wheel from the trunk.” Detective Thompson then testified “At that he told me that he had thrown it out up in Washington Park and he couldn’t tell anyone exactly where it was, but *22that he could show someone, he thought, where it was thrown.” “He stated numerous times '* *' * that he was sorry.”
Detective Thompson testified that no threats or promises were made and they only talked “whenever he wanted to talk about it.” He-also testified the defendant seemed mentally alert. The defendant did not testify.
The above evidence was elicited before the judge, in the absence of the jury, and the trial court found beyond a reasonable doubt that the defendant’s statements were voluntary and free from improper coercion. Subsequently the officer testified before the jury as to the conversations.
The officers and the defendant arrived in Portland about 6:00 a.m. the morning' of August 4, 1965, and defendant was taken to a Portland police station. He there told a deputy district attorney that he did not wish to make a statement and that he wanted an attorney. At 9:00 a.m. the defendant was taken before a magistrate and again advised of all his constitutional rights.
After having been again advised of his rights, the defendant told the officers if they Avould take him to "Washington Park he Avould show them where he had thrown the tire. The officers then took him' to the park but the tire was not then discovered. Later it Avas discovered that the tire had rolled doAvn an incline and Avas concealed by the undergrowth. On this trip the defendant again told the officers of what transpired on that night the crime was committed. At approximately 2:00 p.m. while the defendant was talking Avith his relatives an officer brought in a spare tire and asked him if this was his tire and he said it was.
*23, . Another hearing as to the voluntariness of these statements was heard by the judge in the absence of the jury, and the trial court again found beyond a reasonable doubt that the statements were voluntary. The defendant did not testify at this hearing.
The defendant on the 4th day of August executed an affidavit that he Avas an indigent and filed a request for counsel. On.the 5th day of August the trial court appointed an attorney to represent him.
The defendant’s contention as to statements made to the officers by him on the return from Pendleton to Portland and Avhile looking for the tire is that, since the defendant stated at Pendleton at the time he Avas advised of his rights and again Avhen taken before the magistrate in Portland, that he wanted an attorney, ipso facto any statements made by him thereafter are inadmissible.
The record discloses that there Avas no attempt on the part of the officers to question the defendant on the return trip from Pendleton, but that his statements were of his own desire. After his arrival in Portland, police officers questioned defendant only concerning the lost spare tire and “asked if he would show us where he had thrown the spare Avheel and he agreed to.”
The contention of the defendant was settled adversely to his position in State v. Atherton, 242 Or 621, 410 P2d 208.
The defendant relies upon Miranda v. Arizona, 384 US 436, 86 S Ct 1602, 16 L ed 2d 694, but it is to be remembered that this case was tried before the Miranda decision Avas rendered. Miranda.is not applied retroactively. Dorsciak v. Gladden (1967), 246 Or 233, 425 P2d 177; State v. Dills; Stice, 244 Or 188, *24416 P2d 651; Johnson v. New Jersey, 384 US 719, 86 S Ct 1772, 16 L ed 2d 882.
However, if Miranda applied, there was no violation of the import of that decision which is summarized by the Court as follows:
“To summarize, we hold that when an individual is taken into custody or otherwise deprived of his freedom by the authorities in any significant way and is subjected to questioning, the privilege against self-incrimination is jeopardized. Procedural safeguards must be employed to protect the privilege, and unless fully effective means are adopted to notify the person of his right of silence and to assure that the exercise of the right will be scrupulously honored, the following measures are required. He must be warned prior to any questioning that he has the right to remain silent, that anything he says can be used against him in a court of law, that he has the right to the presence of an attorney, and that if he cannot afford an attorney one will be appointed for him prior to any questioning if he so desires. Opportunity to exercise these rights must be afforded to him throughout the interrogation. After such warnings have been given, and such opportunity afforded him, the individual may knowingly and intelligently waive these rights and agree to answer questions or make a statement. But unless and until such warnings and waiver are demonstrated by the prosecution at trial, no evidence obtained as a result of interrogation can be used against him.” Miranda v. Arizona, supra, 384 US 436, 473, 16 L ed 2d 694, 726.
The prior statement of the United States Supreme Court summarized above is found on pages 706 and 707, 16 L ed 2d, 384 US 444-445, where the court stated:
“* * * [T]he prosecution may not use statements, whether exculpatory or inculpatory, stem*25ming from custodial interrogation of the defendant unless it demonstrates the use of procedural safeguards effective to secure the privilege against self-incrimination. By custodial interrogation, we mean questioning initiated by law enforcement officers after a person has been taken into custody or otherwise deprived of his freedom of action in any significant way. As for the procedural safeguards to be employed, unless other fully effective means are devised to inform accused persons of their right of silence and to assure a continuous opportunity to exercise it, the following measures are required. Prior to any questioning, the person must be warned that he has a right to remain silent, that any statement he does make may be used as evidence against him, and that he has a right to the presence of an attorney, either retained or appointed. The defendant may waive effectuation of these rights, provided the waiver is made voluntarily, knowingly and intelligently. If, however, he indicates in any manner and at any stage of the process that he wishes to consult with an attorney before speaking there can be no questioning. Likewise, if the individual is alone and indicates in any manner that he does not wish to be interrogated, the police may not question him. The mere fact that he may have answered some questions or volunteered some statements on his own does not deprive him of the right to refrain from answering any further inquiries until he has consulted with an attorney and thereafter consents to be questioned.” (Emphasis ours.)
By the use of the word “process” it is clear the court is speaking of “custodial” interrogation, and that after a prisoner has been informed of his right to remain silent and of his right to consult with counsel prior to making any statements, he may waive these “procedural safeguards” and answer all questions if he does so “voluntarily, knowingly and intelligently.” It *26is also clear that if at any time during the interrogation he wishes to call hack into effect the rights of which he has been informed he may do so and prevent further interrogation. . .
All of the evidence in this case is to the effect that this defendant was fully advised of these “procedural safeguards”, and this is not denied by the defendant. Also, that, although he .stated he desired an attorney, he did not express any desire to see an attorney prior to answering questions by the officers, nor did he ever request the right to “consult with an attorney before speaking.”
As stated, the defendant does not contend that he was not informed of his rights. Defendant’s only contention is that his statements could not be voluntary since the record discloses he had been without sleep for 48 hours and he had taken “dexamyl” pills.
There is nothing in the record of. the hearings before the trial judge that indicated the defendant was totally without sleep for 48 hours or that he had taken an excessive amount of “dexamyl” pills.
The record more than justified the trial court’s findings that defendant knowingly and voluntarily made the statements attributed to him by the police officers.
The defendant also contends that, since the indictment charged only that the defendant “did unlawfully, feloniously and purposely and of deliberate and premeditated malice kill * and the State in the course of the trial introduced evidence of a killing in the course of committing a felony, as well as evidence from which the jury could draw á reasonable conclusion of premeditated malice, the defendant was deprived of an opportunity to know of and defend against the felony murder theory.' He therefore urges *27that.we-review and overrule State v. Reyes, 209 Or 595, 303 P2d 519, 301 P2d 146, 308 P2d 182, where, after reviewing the statutory law and the prior decisions of this court, we held that an indictment which charges only premeditated murder is sufficient to sustain a conviction of murder in the first degree where the proof discloses that the killing was done in the course of committing or attempting to commit a felony.
We have reviewed Reyes and are fully in accord with its pronouncements.
The defendant also assigns as error the triál court instructing on premeditation and malice and on murder occurring in the course of a rape and on a killing in the course of a robbery for the reason there was insufficient evidence to support such instructions.
Our review of the evidence convinces us that these assignments of error had they been properly raised in the trial court are entirely without merit.
The judgment is affirmed.
