     Some 5,000 mostly high school students...demanding better facilities and free education...encountered riot police in Santiago...armed with tear gas and water cannons.
    At least 50 were arrested...and 3 police were injured. 
    Reportedly...university students have taken a back seat in the new protests.
     But...as usual...only the dogs were having fun chasing water and getting doused.
