They don't bother to show the suppressor connection on the ASUSA schematic presumably because it is inside the tube, and has no external connections or functions.
In response to Joe saying that the suppressor is more reliable connected to the plate than to the cathode in an EL34, it is interesting to note that this is virtually never the way you see it used. In fact, I cannot think of any amp that I've seen, homemade or production, that uses the suppressor connected to the anode/plate.
