Here It Comes, ‘Miss America’
United Press International
ATLANTIC CITY, N.J. — Bert Parks won’t be back at the Miss America pageant but the traditional song will be.
After three years of using substitute tunes to crown the jewel of American womanhood, “There She Is (Miss America)” will again be sung to honor the winner, Albert Marks Jr., longtime director of the contest, said today. The song was dropped a few years back when its composer, Bernie Wayne, demanded more money but a price has been settled upon, Marks said.
