@SBT -- I used the OCR that is included in PDFXchange reader -- since it is freeware, it might even use the tessaract engine. I will hunt down and try tessaract for the next time I hit one of these. It couldn't give me worse output than this, I think.
Thank you so much for the Regex patterns. I bet they will be useful when I am dealing with OCR from archive.org.

Thanks again to you both.
FYI, you can process a scanned PDF with k2pdfopt to OCR it with the tesseract engine, which is built into k2pdfopt (free software).
