1946: "MISCHIEF NIGHT" 1946

It was also known as "Tick Tack" night. A night when many of our more disorderly youngsters set out to soap up car windows, throw toilet tissue into the branches of trees, and other very unpleasant acts. The aforementioned transgressions were minor. Some of the more violent of our teens set fires, threw stuffed dummies in front of autos, and other acts of violence which should have landed them in jail. Thanks to the close patrolling of the police in today's violence prone society, the incidents of serious pranks has decreased considerably.
