NEW YORK, NEW YORK As Reds fans, we were amused by the mention of All-Star Eric Davis in Darryl Strawberry's rap recording of Chocolate Strawberry (Taking the Rap, July 13). Therefore we have decided to add a few stanzas to that infamous tune.

I write as a close friend of Millie and Ray Robinson. I have known them since 1965.

Ray a prisoner? From my viewpoint, Millie is the prisoner! A willing, caring, loving prisoner who will do, and always has done, anything and everything for her Ray. Ray and Millie visit friends often, go out to dinner and do all that Ray is capable of doing. Millie remains the rock in Ray's corner.
