YIP, YIP, YAPHANK, aside from the usual skits, contained an exhibition bout with lightweight champion Benny Leonard.

The sheet music for 'Oh, How I Hate to Get Up in the Morning' credits ZIEGFELD FOLLIES OF 1919 but song writer Gene Buck says it was never used in the Ziegfeld shows.

'(I Can Always Find a Little Sunshine in) The Y.M.C.A.' was intended as a serious song sung by a lonely soldier writing home to his mother. Instead, it got laughs and was dropped shortly after the opening.
