resistors, capacitors, etc. NEED MORE INFO!

i need help with schematics.. the guy at radio shack says there's not enough info about the wattage of resistors and other stuff that he needs so he can get the parts i need. its really annoyin cause theres no schematic online that has that info... is there a way to find the other information on the schematic, but it just aint obvious?
 
well heres a part of it:

That's what you get for shopping at Radio Shack.

Use 1W resistors for the plates, 1/2 watt for cathodes, grid and EQ resistors can be anything small (1/4 watt will be fine). Anything else, actually take the trouble to use Ohm's Law to estimate the power dissipated, then double that for a safety margin. It's OK to use 1W where 1/4 watt is needed but not vice versa!
