I Wow, 4fcouf Those lNW Tkt TtatM Pram The N.V. McrcM Trikww WASHINGTON Now, about that pair of expensive, alligator cowboy boots bearing the presidential seal which President Johnson is supposed to have accepted from that El Paso boot company: The White House said yesterday he didn't ask for those boots, didn't agree to accept them, and sent them right back without ever putting them on. THE TONY Lama Boot however, still had a version that was a little different. They said the first pair of boots was returned because they didn't fit Johnson's feet, but that a pair of his old shoes were sent along with them, to assure a proper fit on a second pair. Well, the President sent the second pair back, too, said the White House.

Why did he send the company the old pair of shoes? The White House didn't have any explanation for this. Presidential Press Secretary Bill Moyers said yesterday that the boots were a gift of the people of El Paso and were handed to a White House staff member when the President was there last fall. The boot company said the boots were a gift from the boot company on behalf of the people of El Paso and were handed to the President personally by a company official "TO MY KNOWLEDGE, that Is Inaccurate," said Moyers. He said Johnson has received about four dozen pairs of gift cowboy boots since he became President and always has returned them. "The President has his own boots, doesn't he, Bill," a reporter suggested.

"That's right," replied Moyers. -UPI TUtphotO Tho Controversial 'Presidential' Boots St. ftttnbwf Times, mirf, StyttnAtr It ItU III 1 1 II. i mi ii ii liil 1 iv I in A aja UU yy vl-y LJu -ill. Poet Sandburg In Hospital onnm (i7 pasmuE in Ml ''Bl 'Bi k'ttWl IN 10 DAYS nmrwezas tks u.ca.

Carl Sandburg, poet and Lincoln biographer, was reported resting comfortably yesterday in a hospital where he was admitted Friday. Pardee Memorial Hospital declined to disclose the nature of 87 year old author's disability. Sandburg was brought to the hospital from his home, Con-nemara Farm, at nearby Flat Rock, where he raises goats and Is noted for his unscheduled appearances of guitar Sandburg's son In law, Dr. George Crile, a Cleveland surgeon, was reported en route to the hospital from Ohio. He married Helga Sandburg Nov.

18, 1963. One of the highlights of his later years was a trip to Washington to receive from President Johnson last Sept. 14 the presidential Medal of Freedom. He was one of 30 receiving the medal. On that occasion, when his name was called, Sandburg squared his shoulders, moved in front of the President, saluted smartly and said, "Sixth Illinois Volunteers." That was the outfit In which he served in the Spanish American War.

After filling out his application papers at the Culver City, branch of the Department of Motor Vehicles, the would be driver holder of a temporary license went out to get his car for the road test. It was parked on the department lot. He got in and backed it up. And up, and up, and up. Clear back to the Department of Motor Vehicles building and right through the wall.

It was the third straight time he had flunked the test. "Don't mention my name," he asked as he eyed the wreckage. "I'm in enough trouble already." Cardinal Mindszenty's Condition Not Serious A U.S. legation spokesman in Budapest, Hungary, said yesterday Josef Cardinal Mindszenty is in "good shape" despite a recent illness. He denied reports that the cardinal needs an operation.

The spokesman said the 73 year- old prelate suffered a recent recurrence of a tubercular ailment he contracted while a prisoner of the Communists in the early 1950s, but he "is certainly not in serious condition." Attorney Says Father Divine Was Penniless Father Divine son of a former slave, "God" to thousands, and leader of an international spiritual cult estimated to be worth millions of dollars died penniless, his lawyer said yesterday. J. Austin Norris said in Philadelphia that Father Divine "had not a penny in his pocket. And, he's never had to pay any income taxes." "He owns absolutely nothing," said Norris. Chess Champ Faces Uphill Fight U.S.

chess champion Bobby Fischer has an uphill fight on his hands when he resumes a crucial match today with Yugoslav chess master Borislav Ivkov. Ivkov was in a stronger position than Fischer when their match in the Havana based Capablanca Memorial Chess Tournament was postponed and then adjourned Friday after 41 moves were played. The postponement came when Hurricane Betsy knocked out communications between Havana and New York, where Fischer is playing via cable. The U.S.. State Department refused to let him go to Communist Cuba for the tournament.

Whoever wins the match will gain undisputed possession of first place in the tourney at the half way mark. If it ends in a draw, Fischer would be in a first-place tie with Ivkov and Vassily Smyslov of the Soviet Union. va to 3 Vol. to 5.95 I ST.
