EASTERN AIRLINES STRIKE ENTERS SECOND YEAR

Hundreds of Machinists union members, their relatives and other supporters chanted "one day longer" Sunday outside Eastern Airlines headquarters as they marked the first anniversary of their strike.

Hundreds more strikers and supporters rallied at LaGuardia Airport in New York and other cities.

Another rally was held Saturday in Atlanta.

The Miami strikers' chant "one day longer" meant they would endure one day longer than Texas Air Corp. Chairman Frank Lorenzo, whose company bought Eastern four years ago and who is the focus of the bitter strike.
