Is this the one you're looking for, Mike? 
http://books.google.com/books/about/Development_of_Aircraft_Radio_Receivers.html?id=-5BeHQAACAAJ 
dated 1929, 22 pages.

I vaguely recall a xerox copy might be somewhere out in the shack, but 
it probably came from AB5S.  I'll take a look later today.

I believe it appeared in print sometime between 1929 and 1931.  I once had a hard copy, which I've misplaced.  I initially thought it came from QST, but I'm doubting that now because a lot of very painful QST archive searching at arrl.org has revealed nothing.
