The answer is obvious.  The first list presents the chain of mesorah to 
a specific individual, and the second to the students at a particular 
high school.  In neither case was the Chofetz Chaim or any chassidic 
rebbe part of that specific chain.

This is a little ironic in the second case, since the school in question 
is part of the Chofetz Chaim network, but the fact is that while Reb 
Dovid did learn from his great-uncle, his rebbe muvhak was the Slabodker 
Alter.
