Default Dead space at end of column

I am working on a multi-paged document that is legal-sized, landscape
orientation with three columns on each page. At the end of page two, I have a
recurring problem with the cursor jumping to page 3 about two-thirds of the
way down the column. I cannot type in that area. Displaying formatting
characters reveals nothing to show that there is a problem there. This does
not happen in any other location on the document.

Check the jumping paragraphs to see if many of them are formatted as "Keep
with next" and "Keep lines together." Or perhaps one as "Page break before."
