lowa Girl Selected As Miss Universe Daughter Os lowa Minister Chosen LONG BEACH, Calif. (UP) — Carol Morri?, shapely daughter of an lowa minister, won the Miss' Universe title early today and touched off a controversy that marred the contest The judges' selection was announced a few minutes after midnight and smouldering resentment of rejected Latin America contestants flared into open revolt. All of the Latin American beauties were eliminated earlier from the five girl semifinals, causing complaints that the judges wore biased in favor of North American and European types. They bore no personal grudge against the statuesque 20-year-old daughter of an Ottumwa, lowa, minister ,but they thought Latin Americans had been slighted because none from their ranks had won the contest in its fiveyear history. Some of the Europeans sided with the Latin Americans. Iris Waller, Miss England one of the semiflnalists, congratulated Miss Morris but later said she thought it “very odd that all Latin American girls were disqualified.” “I thought Miss Brazil especially deserved to be among the selected five semifinalists,” Miss Waller said. Miss Esrael, Sara Tai, who earlier had refused to pose with Miss Germany, thought at least one Latin American should have been in the semifinals. The Latin Americans thought it was unfair that Americans had won the title in two of the last three contests. Most of the foreign girls were rood'loser*"Friday night when Miss Morris, winner of the Miss lowa and ' Miss USA titles, was picked from among five international finalists as the most beautiful girl in the world. There were happy congratulations tor the Drake University coed from her runners-up, Miss Germany, Marina Orschel, 19; Miss Sweden, Ingrid Goude, 19; Miss England, Iris Waller, 21; and Miss Italy, Rosanna Galli, 21, who finished in that order in the finals. But'in the wings after the contest was over, much grumbling came from the Latta Americans. Maria Cardosa, Miss Brazil, declared: "We all are tremendously disappointed. I am certain that among the Latin Americans among the 15 semi-finalists there was ample material for the final five. “MisS Argentina, Miss Mexico and Miss Peru all were well qualified to get into this group.” she. added. “It didn't matter to me whether I got in or not." 1 Coming Attractions At Adams Theater Next week brings two of the most outstanding production of the current movie season to the Adams theater.
