THE CURSE OF THE BAMBINO, PART 2 ...
A POWERFUL RED SOX TEAM FAILS IN THE WORLD SERIES ...

May 13, 1946 ... No game scheduled ... The Red Sox arrived in Chicago with several photographers waiting for the team in the hotel lobby.  Most of the people in the midwest regard the Sox as a powerhouse.  One photographer wanted a picture of the team's .400 hitters.  Manager Joe Cronin reminded him that Pesky, DiMaggio  and Williams no longer are batting .400   Reporters wanted to know about the rumor of a trade for the Browns' Vern Stephens.  Cronin said the rumored trade has never been discussed.   New member of the Sox, Bob Klinger has not appeared yet.
