Four Miss Universes graced the event; Armi Kuusela of Finland who during her reign and duties as the Miss Universe (1952) in the Philippines met and married a Filipino tycoon Virgilio Hilario, Silvia Hitchcock (1967), Philippines first Miss Universe Gloria Diaz (1969), and the beautiful and poised Margie Moran waiting for the next lucky girl who would continue the legacy of being Miss Universe.
A total of sixty-five (65) candidates from different counties and territories vied for the crown including Philippines' very own Guada Sanchez. She made it to the magic 12 but apparently lacked showmanship and regal bearing to catch the judges fancy.
At the end of the event, Spain's Amparo Muñoz was announced the winner making her the first Miss Universe to be crowned in the Philippines. If only on that note, she could have been declared the third Filipina Miss Universe.
