Here She Is, Miss America
Teresa Scanlan, just 17, won the Miss America crown Saturday night competing against 52 other women from across the country. The young woman from Nebraska will reign for a year and also won a $50,000 scholarship. The event took place at Planet Hollywood casino-resort in Las Vegas. It was the first Miss America from the corn-husker state. Teresa is the youngest Miss America since the pageant implemented age limits in 1938.
