   Well with the help of you guys and a friend who had worked on one of these before I did get things figured out..
          Most schematics do show if there is more than one cap in a can or block , but I guess Philco does not do that ... Part #80 on the schematic is actually two .15 caps in a block, but it only shows a .03 cap.. That block number tells me that there are two .15 caps in there ..so I was looking for those two caps on the schematic. THAT is where I got confused.. it's like learning to read a new language. Very confusing '',BUT''   I did learn more about Philcos.
   Thanks for the input.
