Notes:
The name “Titus Canby” was previously used as the name of a miserly character in the classic comic strip “Bringing Up Father” (alternately known as Jiggs and Maggie). The writer of this story may very well have borrowed the name from that source. Bugs calls Porky "Pork" in this story. There are a few stories during this period with this distinctive phrase, probably by the same writer.
