The problem is that to get a readable scan the circular would have to 
be unbound (if there is such a word) in order to get them flat in the 
scanner.  Secondly, the original edition is 1924 with a reprint in 
1937.  The reprint has "certain type corrections and omissions".  I 
have no idea if the page numbering is the same.   I mention this 
because if you find a copy, your only recourse may be to retype the pages.

   Essentially correct except the original printing was in 1918, 
during WW1.  It was a compendium by a young man named George 
Southworth, on his first job out of school.  He later went on to 
spend many years in the radio business and did a great deal of early 
work on waveguides (including some submerged in a swimming pool to 
effectively make them larger) and microwave horns.  I wouldn't be 
surprised if he built TC's as a kid, but he doesn't mention that in 
his book "50 YEARS OF RADIO ENGINEERING".
