Thanks for the responses!

John: Oh yes, of course. Sorry about that. inimal org file and config files
are here. I had to make the org file long enough to make several pages, so
the header displays. Here you go:
https://github.com/petersalazar/org-troubleshooting

Rasmus: #+OPTIONS: num:0 is what I started from. When I do that, the
resulting PDF has no Table of Contents, and the header displays the section
title as "Contents."

The same thing happens with #+LATEX: \setcounter{secnumdepth}{0}.

Richard: Your idea about
#+LATEX_HEADER: \renewcommand{...}

sounds very promising! I'd love to know what the exact command is!

I don't need section numbers ever, so my desire is to turn off numbering
forever, but still have an intact Table of Contents and header.

Thanks guys!
