Ill lay: Evangelist Billy Graham, nearly speechless for a few days with a bronchial infection, in London; Cinemactress Marilyn Monroe, after minor gynecological surgery, in Hollywood; Ford Motor Chairman Henry Ford II, bedded by infectious mononucleosis, in Grosse Pointe, Mich.; and Cinemactress June Allyson, after surgery to remove polyps from her vocal cords, in Santa Monica, Calif.

Anxious to dispose of a Prohibition-era hangover, the U.S. Government hauled Ralph ("Bottles") Capone, 67, Al's older brother, into Chicago's Federal Court to try to make him pay an interest-bloated, $217,716 tab for ducking his 1926-1928 income taxes. Billed for $87,217.33 in 1935. Ralph dodged process servers, won trial delays, while the figure grew relentlessly. Last week Ralph, who insists that his sole source of income is his hunting lodge in Mercer, Wis., won yet another delay, a four-week continuance.
