Second, why don't you continue this line the same way you do with all the other lines, i.e. type a blank followed by a dash? Finally, don't start any keyword in position 1. You may use pos.2-71. Note that anything that follows the "//SYSIN DD *" is DFDSS input and not JCL. DFDSS syntax rules apply not JCL rules.
