Yes, I'd not suggest compiling two separate programs as a single source, except 
for the idea that they (the Manglerment) seem to want it done in one "program". 
I'd kind of hope it doesn't fit into their procedures either - even though it 
is as "logically equivalent" to the ENTRY idea as it is the separate programs 
idea.

A twisted, prone to misunderstanding, way with ENTRY to make one program out of 
two vs two programs in one source vs two separate programs in two separate 
sources. The two-programs-in-one-source I'd see (in this case) as a another 
stepping-stone to the abandonment of the idea to be complicated.

I'd prefer it to be horribly simple. One program to do one thing. A second 
program to do the other thing.

PROGRAM-ID...
...
    ENTRY

vs

PROGRAM-ID...
PROGRAM-ID...

vs 

PROGRAM-ID...

PROGRAM-ID...

Other than the additional "boilerplate" the difference in having the two 
programs (however it is done) is just no ENTRY statement.
