Jane Greer Named
1949 Sweater Girl
Hollywood.—Jane Greer won
the title of "sweater girl of
1949" in a photo finish.
So says President Bob Landry
of the Motion Picture Photogra
phers Association, which had the
difficult task of making tie se
lection from a considerable ar
rav of talent.
Although it was ten years ago
that Lana Turner was crowned
the first sweater queen, she still
ranked in second place this week.
However, said Landry yester
day, "Jane edged her out be
cause, on looking the situation
over carefully, we decided that
she has the greatest amount of
chest appeal."
