Grand Jury Ignores Case. Winston Salem, N. July 13. ISpeciallThe fatal shooting on July 6 of Smith Reynolds, :0 year old son of the late multimillionaire tobacco manufacturer and bridegroom of Libby Holman of New York musical comedy fame, contained no official interest for the Forsyth county grand jury, which was dismissed here late today. The jury took no action on the shooting which a coroner's jury decided on Monday night was done by a person or persons unknown." The grand jury did not summon any witnesses who were questioned at the coroner's inquest, neither did it renuest Solicitor Carlisle W.

Higgins for the testimony taken at the inquest, which left the way open for this week's grand jury or any future one to investigate the case. The next grand jury will meet July 25.

The young man was shot in the right temple. The bullet emerged from the left side of the head, about an Inch and a half lower than the point of entry, indicating that if he was shot while in a standing povition by the bed, the bullet traveled downward. The sheriff pointed out that it the bullet actually had traveled downward It would have lodged in the moulding near the floor on the south side of the room.

However, the hole made by the bullet pierced a wire screen at a point six feet two inches front the fleor. The bullet never was found, but fragments of the bullet jacket were picked up near the pillow on the bed, in the lattice work above the bed, and on the floor below the bullet bole. Another elemert of mystery was injected into the case today when C. Raymond Kramer, tutor of the young tobacco heir, told the authorities that Reynolds had been making inquiries about a mysterious automobile supposed to have entered the grounds shortly before the shooting.
