Thanks for Richard Corliss's tribute to Soupy Sales [Nov. 9]. What it didn't mention was the utter devotion children of the 1950s felt for this dear and roguish man. We joined him every weekday for lunch. At the end of each show, he told us his menu for the next day so we could request the same.

A cursory glance at any standard men’s publication such as GQ or Esquire, not to mention Maxim, makes this clear. Anybody expecting to find actual women in the section labeled “Women” will be sorely disappointed; instead, there are usually pictures of bikinis with breasts in them and accompanying articles about how to meet those breasts.
