Despite this, she went on to win the talent award and to become first runnerup in the national pageant. "The snapping twang of the broken string frightened me for a moment," she said. "But the people in charge noticed, and told the judges what had happened." It startled the entire audience. Symko was playing the same number that won her a preliminary talent award at the Miss Utah Pageant in June. Her rendition was startling there too even without a string breaking. "Sophia has more power at the piano than I've ever seen," said Norm Nielsen, President of the Miss Utah Pageant. The annual National Miss Sweetheart Pageant took place over the Labor Day weekend in in state Hoopeston, III. where 20 first runners-upreliminaries to the Miss America Pageant comGina Christen-sen- . pete, Miss Utah's first runner-u- p Spanish Fork, declined to go, so Symko who was second runner-u- p grabbed the opportunity. "It indicates how strong our talent was this year," said Nielsen.
