Marjorie Wallace became the first Miss United States to be crowned Miss World. The United States' representative had previously finished as first runner-up on five occasions, in 1954, 1955, 1956, 1965, and 1969. Wallace would also become the first winner not to complete her reign when she was fired[1] in March 1974, because she had "failed to fulfill the basic requirements of the job".[9] The title was never offered to any of the runner-ups. Instead the remaining scheduled duties were handled by third placed Miss Jamaica. Marjorie was never officially replaced by any of the runners up.
