It should work if each of the three grid pins are RF grounded through at
least 470pF per pin. The dc grid currents can be carried by two 1/2w 30
to 51 ohm resistors, one from the screen to ground and one from the grid
to ground. Another method is to direct ground the two screen pins and
direct ground the grid pin. However, this arrangement offers no grid
protection.
