Jan. 22, 1968 - Students Riot In Louvain: Flemmish and French speaking Belgians are again at each other's throats. Flemmish students at the ancient Catholic university of Louvain take violent exception to the introduction of French into some of the faculties. Louvain, they claim, is Flemmish soil; and the univesity therefore must be maintained as a Flemmish preserve. French speaking students and staff should emigrate to Wallonie. Police and clergy (behind the scenes) have yet to find a solution to this new twist of the age-old feud. Photo shows Hoses being used on rioting students in Louvain
