Something you don't see much anymore: a televised doubleheader. That's pretty much the afternoon programming on WGN, as the White Sox take on Boston. (The Chisox sweep, 6-0 and 1-0; it's Boston's third doubleheader of the month and second this week.) Something that people may not have noticed at the time: one of the guests on American Forum of the Air (1:30 p.m., WNBQ) is Massachusetts' first-year senator, John F. Kennedy. Something you don't want your kids to learn: quiz is not spelled "Kwiz" (Kids Karnival Kwiz, noon, WNBQ). Something you wouldn't believe today: programming on Sunday morning doesn't begin until 9:20 a.m. Giving people time to get to church? Hey, it may not be old, new, borrowed or blue, but it's the day in Chicagoland television.
