The Yip Yip Yaphankers doubled from the Palace, subbing for Pearl Regay, and tore off large returns with the soldier acrobatics and hokum. The comedian had them from the start and was forced to pull a burlesque wrestling stunt in “one” following the dropping of the curtain. It is the same bit of wrestling with himself that Nick Altrock uses on the ball field to amuse thousands when the Washington Club is entertaining the holiday crowds.
