Number one group is the parents, who are directly responsible. Second are the operators of business- es where youngsters might gather after the curfew, and third, those in charge of so- cial activities which involve young boys and girls. The curfew law says that youngsters are to be off the streets by 10 o'clock each night in the week.Kline said that does not mean they may leave an organized social function at 10 o’clock and then go to some public place for refreshments before go- ing home. Ten o'clock is the curfew hour, he emphasized.
