The third American in 9 years to win Miss Universe came from Salt Lake City, Utah.
Ma. Stella Marquez of Colombia, a semi-finalist, went on to win the first Miss International title later that year, then known as the International Beauty Congress, after Miss Universe and Long Beach split after 8 years. The Miss Universe contest is moved to Miami Beach. This is the first year that the pageant is telecast live on television and the Miss Universe creed was read for the first time.
