 Producer Edward Selzer (qv) disliked the Tasmanian Devil and asked  that no further cartoons be made with him. It was studio head  Jack L. Warner (qv) who asked for more cartoons with "Taz Boy" (as  the animators called him), on the strength of audience response to  the character. Hence, there is a three year difference between this  cartoon and Tazs next appearance in  _Bedevilled Rabbit (1957)_ (qv).
