Willie, According to the HELP, the dataset name type defaults to the characteristics above. You did not specify directory blocks, so it assumes physical sequential (PS). Member names are invalid for PS datasets. Either add directory blocks or specify LIBRARY as the dataset name type.

You should try this and see if it works. I find trying SHR, OLD and NEW on a PDS that will not matter if it is over written a good thing to try to understand how things work. Also, you could press PF1 (HELP) and see what the HELP panel states.
