More than 100 anti-apartheid demonstrators are continuing an around-the-clock sit-in at the University of California, Berkeley. It began Wednesday on the main steps of Sproul Hall’s administration building. The protesters said they want the university’s regents to stop investing in companies that do business with South Africa and to discuss the issue at the regents’ May 16-17 meeting in Berkeley. University officials used police to take away mattresses from the protesters Friday and said they would force the demonstrators to clear a path to one of the front doors of the building by Monday morning.
