About 100 people met at Boston University last night and approved a sit-in probably at the President's office on Monday-to support twelve demands concerning the G.E. strike, police action stemming from a sit-in on November 25. and an allegedly racist conference on "Big Business in the Ghetto."

Before voting, they heard Gene Jones, a Boston Black Panther leader, urge support for a Panther demonstration this Saturday at the JFK building protesting the killings of two Panther leaders Wednesday night in Chicago.
