(AP) Miss Florida, Cathy LaBelle, is hoping history repeats itself tonight when the new Miss America is crowned. The 20-year-old Tampa resident won the third preliminary talent competition at the pageant Friday with a moving rendition of the song "He Touched Me." The tune, from the Broadway musical "Drat the Cat," was sung in 1973 by Miss Wisconsin, Terry Anne Meeuwsen, who became Miss America. The University of South Florida theater major said she chose the song because of her admiration for Barbra Streisand, the singer who made it a hit.

Also Friday, Miss South Carolina, Catherine Amelia Hinson, continued the dominance of Southern contestants by the winning swimsuit competition. She wore a shiny turquoise suit that's never been in the water. "I don't really like to swim that much," said the 22-yearold resident of Rock Hill, who joined the other preliminary swimsuit winners Miss Arkansas, Bunnie Carolyn Holbert, and Miss Tennesse, Lynda Faye Moore. "Maybe it's that good old Southern cooking," said Miss Hinson, a graudate of Winthrop College. Miss LaBelle joins two other preliminary talent winners Miss Pennsylvania, Lynne Carol Grote, who played a piano medley of George Gershwin hits, and Miss Ohio, Susan Yvonne Perkins, who sang the blues song, "Good Morning, Heartache." Pageant officials said tradition favors the six preliminary winners being named among the top 10 finalists, who will be announced shortly before the new Miss America is selected.

Each talent winner gets a $2,000 scholarship, and winners of swimsuit competitions receive $1,500 scholarships. 4:00 Treasure Hunt Governor's Report Connecticut Governor Ella Grasso is interviewed.

(AP) The first thing Claire Ford did after winning the Miss Black America crown and returning to her motel room was to order up a juicy hamburger and some french fries. "I didn't eat anything all day because of the swim suit competition, but I'm ready now," Miss Ford, 18, the Tennessee entrant, said in a telephone interview today. "It feels good when your prayers are answered," added th3 shapely sophomore English major at Memphis State University.

"I prayed, and it's great. I'm so excited." The 5-foot-10, 135-pound teenager was crowned Friday night during the first television broadcast of the event. Miss Ford won the crown over a field of 30 other candidates from the United States and Puerto Rico. During the talent portion of the show, she sang, "Everything Must Change," by Quincy Jones. The youngest of three children, Miss Ford wants to be a corporate lawyer.

Her father, Henry C. Ford, is a mortician, and her mother, Norma, teaches sixth grade. In addtion to a $10,000 cash prize, she will be given a screen test at Universal Pictures and the National Broadcasting Co. Studios. Broadway and television star Ben Vereen hosted the program, which was broadcast live to the East Coast and delayed in the West.

Vereen helped outgoing queen, Twanna Kilgore, of Washington, D.C. place the crown on Miss Ford's head. ATLANTIC CITY, N.J. (AP) Miss New Hampshire, Jaime Lynn Rotwitt, claims she didn't get a fair chance to display her organ-playing ability during her talent competition at the Miss America Pageant here. Miss Rotwitt, 20, of Weirs Beach, also said she wasn't given an adequate chance to display her talents during an unprecedented second performance.

She was permitted to perform a second time for the four women and three men who make up the pageant judging panel after her first performance was marred by audio equipment problems. Pageant chairman Albert A. Marks, ordered the replay for Miss Rotwitt and another contestant who also had trouble with the audio system in Convention Hall. The failure occurred during the third night of preliminary pageant competition. Miss Florida, Cathy LaBelle, 20, from Tampa, won the talent preliminary with her performance of the song "He Touched Me." The nationally televised finals are scheduled for tonight.

"The replay was not as adequate as it should have been," Miss Rotwitt said. "I'm going to live with it and I'm going to accept it. Things happen for a reason." The other contestant, Miss Washington, Natasha Solovjev, said she was "very satisfied and thankful and happy that the pageant made that gesture." A second performance of talent competition has never happened before at the national level. However, pageant officials said it was common at state pageants. Marks strongly defended the sound quality of Miss Rotwitt's second performance.

"On the replay, I personally walked throughout the entire house to listen to it and the audio was adequate wherever I heard it and it certainly was in the judges' booth. "If she has a problem with that, I have no further interest," Marks added. "I don't check audio for contestants. She was given every shake possible. We do our best to be as fair as possible."

5-year-old stricken by rabies ALBANY (AP) A 5-year-old Schenectady County boy is undergoing treatment for rabies, the first person known to be bitten by a rabid animal in New York State since 1951. The state Health Department, which did not identify the child, said he had been bitten on the finger by a bat while sleeping in his home in the Town of Glenville. Tests of the animal, killed by the boy's father, revealed that the animal carried the rabies virus. Rabies is an infection of the nervous system, transmitted to man through the saliva of an infected animal. Remarkably unemotional about the whole thing, Scott was described as being "cool as a cucumber" by TV and stage personality Dick Cavett, who made the drawing.

Scott will receive his winnings in $50,000 installments over the next 20 years, minus $10,000 a year for taxes. The winner said it was the first time he had ever won anything of consequence. Scott, who purchases two tickets per week, said he might buy a van with some of his winnings and probably stay in Bridgeport, not far from Syracuse, "for a while." Second-place winner of $50,000 was Victoria Higuera of Flushing, Queens. Navy unveils maternity uniform WASHINGTON (LTD The Navy has unveiled $40 maternity uniforms to enable officers and enlisted women to maintain a uniformed and "professional" appearance without switching to civilian maternity clothes. The style innovation follows a recent return to the bell bottomed sailor suit for men.

The four-piece maternity uniform announced Friday consists of a long or short-sleeved shirt, dark blue slacks and skirt and dark blue overblouse. The Navy said the separate items "can be mixed to form appropriate uniforms for all seasons and duty requirements." The uniforms were developed "in response to the desires of Navy women for an attractive and practical uniform which would allow them to maintain a more professional Even when she was among the final three contestants in the millionaire drawing of the New York State lottery in Manhattan Friday afternoon, Henrietta Petri of Mon-sey never thought she'd win the grand prize. "I kept saying no, oh, no, oh, no, it'll never happen to me," said the 57-year-old New York Telephone Co. employe. It didn't, but Mrs.

Petri of Monsey seemed more than happy to win $15,000, a prize also garnered by 13 other contestants at the drawing at Roseland Dance City. Mrs. Petri said she had never won anything before and didn't expect to win anything more than the $15,000 she was guaranteed after buying the winning ticket in White Plains in July. She said she will use the money for her retirement, but said she plans to stay on her job for some tine. Planning to leave his job as an aircraft mechanic is Perry Scott, 58, of Bridgeport, N.Y., who won the grand prize of $1 million.

He beat out 14 other hoefuls in the drawing, one of whom won $50,000. Scott said he'd give up his job, but he will take his $5,000 yearly pension. "I gotta make a phone call to the old lady, get her to retire from that stupid old job," he said, referring to his wife, Mary Anne. He didn't indicate what the job was, but one of his four children, Clark, 24, indicated she was a proofreader. Some of his winnings will be spent to help Clark resume his college studies, Scott said.
