RCA up972 help with capacitors

Hi all I could use some help.. On the RCA up972 schematic I understand the + and - leads (all go to chassis ground) of the three 2mf caps but the 2 larger blocks of 4/7mf caps I am not sure what is + and negative.. The two large blocks are hooked together...Is this - and other 3 terminals are +

Sir George. . . . . (now . . . .really ? )


In inspecting the circuit paths of the power supply and the polarities involved


The black and red diamonds are indicative of the experienced polarities


I consider that mark up (that I placed in the yellow area) as a glitch that the schematic drafter introduced, considering the commonality of the terminal designations being at the bottom on the other like cap unit.
