the parade, meeting or gathering contemplated would be likely to interfere
with the peace and good order of the Borough or create an unreasonable
interference or obstruction in the streets or public grounds in the
Borough.
Any person, firm or corporation who shall violate any provision
of this article shall, upon conviction thereof, be sentenced to pay
