Student Unity Group Tops French German Border Barriers
About 300 college students from an international unity group smashed frontier barriers at the French German border near Wiessembourg. Using hatchets and saws they uprooted barriers and burned them as the European flag waved above. The protest aimed to appeal to delegates at Strasbourg where the council of Europe considers full membership for West Germany and the Saar. Prof Michel Mouskhely helped plan the event, calling it historic for Europeans marching to abolish barriers. Guards offered no opposition.
