Reader’s notes
p. 281. Decimal points: every "Percent" cell is printed with one decimal place, but in this 1-bit scan the decimal point is mostly lost and reads as a space ("74 1", "67 3"). I have restored the point before the final digit in all percent cells (so "74 1" is transcribed 74.1). Likewise the abbreviation periods in "Phila., PA" and "St. Louis, MO" are faint/absent in the scan and have been restored; the stub labels are otherwise exactly as printed, including the circuit numbers and the unnumbered "Washington, DC" row. Counts are well supported: every Number column sums to the "Total all circuits" row, and each row's five Number cells sum to that row's Total column, in both the fiscal-year-1986 and the cumulative 1981-1985 halves. Doubtful final percent digits. Footnote 1 says percentages are computed horizontally, and most cells match that computation after normal rounding, but six cells as I read them do not; each involves a last digit that is hard to resolve at this scan quality (7/8, 2/3, 4/5), so they may be my misreading rather than misprints: Boston, MA, "Affirmed in part and remanded in part / Cumulative 1981-1985 / Percent" reads 2.7 (2 of 72 = 2.8); New York, NY, "Affirmed in full / Fiscal year 1986 / Percent" reads 78.2 (18 of 23 = 78.3); New York, NY, "Remanded in full / Fiscal year 1986 / Percent" and "Affirmed in part / Fiscal year 1986 / Percent" both read 4.4 (1 of 23 = 4.3); Richmond, VA, "Affirmed in full / Fiscal year 1986 / Percent" reads 85.8 (12 of 14 = 85.7); Denver, CO, "Set aside / Cumulative 1981-1985 / Percent" reads 8.4 (5 of 59 = 8.5, and the Remanded cell in the same row, also 5 of 59, reads 8.5); Washington, DC, "Affirmed in part / Fiscal year 1986 / Percent" reads 11.7 (2 of 17 = 11.8, and the Modified cell in the same row, also 2 of 17, reads 11.8). Values are transcribed as read, uncorrected. Minor scan artifacts, not transcribed: a stray dot sits just left of the 14 in the Richmond, VA "Total fiscal year 1986" cell, and a comma-like speck follows the "Total all circuits" label. Denver, CO, "Remanded in full / Fiscal year 1986 / Number" is a smudged glyph read as 0; the column sum of 16 confirms 0.
