This year, the original host for the pageant, Calgary, Canada, dropped out due to financial trouble. Miami came to the rescue with barely enough time to prepare. The largest number of delegates arrive in Miami, all 81 of them, a record left unbroken until 1995 produced one more delegate. Local favorites included Mises Venezuela, Colombia and Holland. Guatemala’s Julieta Urrutia impressed people more and more as the pageant progressed. She would later that year win the Miss International crown in Japan. However, Sweden’s Yvonne Ryding was the clear leader on most scorecards and, eventually, the judges'. This year, only 10 semi-finalists were chosen. This is the last year South Africa sends a delegate untill 1995
