Forcing /bin/sh in a script under V/386 3.2 Korn shell

I use Korn shell and am happy with it, but I want certain shell
scripts to be intepreted by the Bourne shell instead. There is
already a mechanism by which CSH(1) figures out to spawn /bin/sh
on a script rather than interpreting itself, namely putting a
colon ':' as the first line.
% cat > xxx
:
ps
^D
% chmod a+x xxx
% xxx
PID TTY TIME COMMAND
27632 console 0:00 csh
27640 console 0:00 sh
27641 console 0:00 ps
What I want to know is, is there any way to do this under K-shell?
The colon certainly doesn't work, and neither does
#! /bin/ksh
or anything else I've tried. Sure would be nice.
