No. "Yellow Pages" is a trademark, not copyrighted (if it is even still a trademark -- if it's not actively defended, the trademark owner loses their rights).

As a trademark, the hun is not infringing upon the owners rights, because it is a non-competing business.

Anyone who has incorporated a business with a lawyer present should be familiar with this. Of course, I live in Canada, and laws vary from country to country.
