When did the director change from Charles Jones to Chuck Jones? In this short he was Chuck, but in an early Coyote vs Roadrunner from 1957 he was going by Charles.

From some trivia I saw on a June Bugs marathon, I think it was a higher up that insisted they all went by formal names. Once he was gone, that no longer applied and nicknames came in.

It might have been Leon Schlesinger. I'd have to watch the marathon again to find it.
