Newscopy: "New York-'Keep 'em sighing' urges Ann Corio--Ann Corio, former burlesque queen who has turned to the movie-and-sarong class, models the abbreviated women's service uniform she originated after visiting many Army and Navy spots. With Ann are private Tex Phillips of Sonora, Tex., and Bill Healion of the U.S. Navy, from Chicago. The outfit, says Ann, saves on material, and 'keeps 'em sighing'.
