MISS SPAIN WINS MISS UNIVERSE 1974
The Philippines' love affair with the Miss Universe pageant reached a feverish pitch when it hosted the 1974 pageant in Manila in July 1974. It was held at the Folk Arts Center which was constructed in a record 35 days.
Spain’s Amparo Muñoz won along with Helen Morgan, Miss Wales, 1st runner up ( Miss Wales would later win the 1974 Miss World crown only to be stripped of the title after a few days when it was found that she was an unwed mother!)
2nd runner up was Miss Finland, Joanna Raunio, who also won the Miss Photogenic crown.
3rd runner up was Miss Colombia, Cecilia Escandon
and the 4th runner up was Miss Aruba, Maureen Ava Viera
