Thank you, Andrew.

Seems to be exactly what we have in this document. There's a problem with
deleting an empty page, though, and there was a problem with columns.
Evidently when you insert columns, Word inserts a new section. The document
had extra section breaks, so I was able to fix the numbering by deleting the
extras, but when I tried to delete a blank page, the rest of the layout went
nuts.

Is the following a layout scheme that Word is meant to use?

- Sideheads on pages
- Two pages of two-column text
- Continuation of sideheads on pages
