Thanks stile! I don't have the comics indeed  Good read! But now I'm curious, what happened to that nincompoop riding the motorcycle? He basically did a hit and run!  That's exactly what he did. He is one of many residents or visitors to 344 Clinton St (where Clark Kent has apartment 3-D) who only appeared once and were never seen again. There are a few who occasionally reappear (List of Residents at DC Wiki) but Jangles Jones the rock band drummer was not one of them either. Myg's turn. ooh! Thanks for confirming. Now this makes me mad: not only at the character, but for the writers/editors to introduce a very strange situation (man with lynx rides motorcycle indoors and hits child), with no follow up! I would have expected Superman to use his x-ray vision or superhearing or whatever to arrest that guy - what he did was definitely a crime! Yeah it was pretty bad when you think about it. Billy was (apparently) knocked unconscious and one of his legs was broken but even if he had come out of it with nary a scrape the motorcyclist should have been charged at the very least. Bronze Age I guess, better at dealing with issues than the Gold and Silver Ages but there were still a few plot devices that were never followed up.

I wonder if Diana pretended to be a mythical hero. Probably not a goddess, that might have been too much...
Atalanta?

Ummmm she was a Golden Age hero
Became more prominent after All-Star Squadron (where I think she only appeared in 1 or 2 issues)

Sound like a good guess. She took over Wondy's position in the JSA following some retconnery (nephew of Sean Connery)
If not her, then...
Merry, Girl of 1000 Gimmicks!

It was indeed Miss America.
In the Phil Jimenez run of Wonder Woman, Diana and Trevor are caught in a time warp and end up in WWII with the miniaturized Villainy, Inc. Hyppolyta is the Wonder Woman of that time and in the midst of battling Clea. Diana spins to transform her costume and ends up as Miss America, where her fighting style and multilingual capacity make Hyppolyta realize who she really is.
Over to Ibby!
