63 of 63 figures sit in a row or column sum that works out.
p. 253. Eight printed columns: stub, Total, and six "Identification of filing party" columns. The stub has no printed heading; "Total^2" is a tall single heading spanning both heading levels, so it is repeated in both. "RC cases", "RM cases" and "RD cases" are centered section banners printed across the value columns (not in the stub column); they are given as section rows with the label in cell 0 and empty value cells. Dash rules (rows of leader-style dashes) fill the six filing-party columns are rendered as "": the Employers column in all RC and RD rows, and the AFL-CIO/Teamsters/Other national/Other local/Individuals columns in all RM rows. The footnote marker on "Pending" appears only in the first RC row ("Pending^2 October 1, 1977"); the corresponding RM and RD rows print "Pending October 1, 1977" without a marker. In footnote 2 the character after "September 30" prints like a period in this scan; it is almost certainly a comma, and is transcribed as a comma. The superscript markers on "Total" and "Identification of filing party" are small raised 2s. All row totals are internally consistent with the printed component figures; no arithmetic discrepancies were found.
