Of note is a handwritten name at the top edge of the Senior Class Play photograph on p 44 with a line drawn down to a fellow in the back row that s signed as Bob Knievel (Tony), who must not have been in the graduating class. (He was “Tony” in the play, probably.) Wiki information has it (undoubtedly?) that Bob Knievel (Tony) (Robert E. Knievel) was the father of Robert Craig Evel Knievel. Furthermore, there does happen to be a 1934 Butte High graduate named Mildred Kenoffel who was probably related to the William Kenoffel (nicknamed Awful Kenoffel) from whom Evel Knievel apparently drew the inspiration (in the 1950s) for his own nickname.
