Record-Emglc, Traverse City, Mich. BKi Miss World bid to keep her title LONDON (UPI) An official of the Miss World beauty contest said today they would try to persuade unmarried mother Helen Morgan to keep her title. "Unless she calmly tells me otherwise I think she should stay on," said Mrs. -Julia Morley, the contest organizer. Miss Morgan, 22, telephoned Mrs.

Morley in tears Tuesday night and resigned the beauty crown she had held only four days. She said she was quitting because of the possibility she would be named as a co- respondent in a divorce case. She was the second successive Miss -World to be fired or quit. Last year Marjorie Wallace of the United States was ousted by the organizers because of scandalous reports about her private life. "She was very upset and overwrought," Mrs.

Morley said of Miss Morgan. 'She was so confused that I am not accepting that she really wishes to resign. "Just' because she may be dragged itno a divorce case does not necessarily mean that she has to resign. I will do everything I can to make her change her mind." Controversy over Miss Morgan erupted almost as soon as she won the title over entrants from 56 other countries Friday night when it was disclosed she had an 18-month-old illegitimate son. Eric Morley, chief judge of the contest, said her resignation had nothing to do with the baby.

The Sun newspaper said cabaret dancer Linda Lovegrove, 28, would cite Miss Morgan as "the other woman" in a court action to divorce her husband, a nightclub owner.
