Thanks everybody.  To get the task done I created a page with 3 
frames.  I tried a table, but the table auto-adjusted the bottom 
when I typed in too much and I did not notice.  With the frame I 
get the red arrow that lets me know.
I tried columns, but the text should NOT flow from 1 to the next.
