Dave, 

Are you saying that there is no way to do this using pure JCL?

In that case I think you will have to use one of the many PARM to control 
card programs to parameterise the dataset name (optionally volume) and pass 
it to a deleting program such as IDCAMS.  Check the CBT Tape.
Maybe some of the data management programs on CBT will delete a dataset 
specified in the parm.
