Teachers Hold Rally--New York City teachers, who struck the school system today for higher wages, hold rally in City Hall Park. More than half of the city's 40,000 teachers walked out. A court ordered an end to the walkout and to picketing but a strike leader told the rally of about 9,000 teachers: "We will not take it." The crowd shouted, "Stay out, stay out."
