The CL programming guide states
"The first SUBR command that is encountered in a procedure also marks 
the end of the mainline of that procedure. All commands from this point 
forward, with the exception of the ENDPGM command, must be contained 
within a subroutine, in other words, between SUBR and ENDSUBR commands. 
The SUBR and ENDSUBR commands must be matched pairs, and subroutines 
cannot be nested; in other words, no SUBR SUBR - ENDSUBR ENDSUBR nesting 
of subroutines is allowed."

The way I interpret that, the GOTO or RETURN should not be required.
