Elmer White's ASU Stage Band soloed with strong big band jazz, prefacing the start of the pageant and the end of intermission with a strong, rollicking rendition of “The Look of Love” from which the pageant theme was taken.

Miss Payne, whose talent entry was a medley from Lil’ Abner, will represent Watauga County at the Miss North Carolina Pageant, whose winner will be the state’s representative at the Miss America finals next year. Attired in a gold gown, the blue-eyed blonde received her crown from Miss Stacy, her trophy and then a bouquet of red roses from Jaycees president Wade Wilmoth before taking her walk on the ramp to a standing crowd of applauders.
