Philco 48-225

Delete the previous with model number 48-25, its a typo
Went on vacation and brought back 11 radios for "fixin" and I am having a ton of fun. 5 of 11 are working (repaired 5 this week). But, I found a Philco 48-225 with messed up filter caps (someone has done some changes)and I can't find a schematic anywhere. Does anyone have a schematic or know the filter cap values and connectivity? I think it has three filter caps, but that's a guess.

There are 3 capacitors for filtering; a 30uf connects to pin 8 (cathode) of the 35Z5; then a 220 ohm resistor to the next cap which is 25uf--this goes to the audio output transformer primary. From there, a 1200 ohm resistor to the last cap which is 20uf. All rated at 150 volts, all have negative to chassis.
