PEOPLE, Page 85No More Apple PieBy Howard G. Chua-Eoan
If you thought there was something familiar about the Miss
U.S.A. pageant last week, you were dead right. The winner was. .
. Miss Texas -- for the fifth year in a row. Gretchen Polhemus of
Fort Worth succeeded Courtney Gibbs, also of Fort Worth, who
succeeded Michelle Royer of Keller, who succeeded Christy Fichtner
of Dallas, who succeeded Laura Martinez-Herring of El Paso. And who
knows where it all will end, so long as GuyRex Associates of El
Paso is around. The firm, which specializes in grooming
beauty-pageant contestants, worked its magic on all five Texas
winners and in fact runs the Miss Texas-U.S.A. franchise. "There
are no more queens," explains GuyRex partner Richard Guy. "Momma
doesn't make apple pie anymore. It's all frozen, all
corporate-owned."
