Five songs from the stage score were deleted from the film version: "The Game," "A Man Doesn't Know," "Near to You," "Not Meg" and "The American League." The latter two songs appeared in the original Broadway production, but were axed shortly after the opening - not at all unusual for George Abbott, who was known to continue perfecting a show's tempo and content months or years into its run. Meanwhile, despite being omitted as a musical number, "The Game" was retained for the familiar opening strain of the film's overture.
