XML Publisher calling a Sub Template with 2 columns

Gurus,

I have a RTF template creating a report from a BI Publisher App Engine in HR 9.0.  In the middle of my template, I need a section to be 2 columns, however the rest of the RTF everything is standard.  So what I did was make a sub tempate.  The sub tempate does my for-each-group and that template is formatted with the 2 columns.  When I run this as a whole, the RTF does initiate the Sub Template however all the results are just posted in one column and not like the newspaper format I'm looking for.

That being said, when I run the sub template standalone, it produces the results in the newspaper form I'm looking for!
