You started FREDDY, so that's what RACF knows about.  It sounds like you
really have a started JOB, not a started PROC, and that BLOGGS has a
//BLOGGS JOB statement in it.  If you're starting that via START FREDDY,
then I -think- that RACF would see FREDDY with a job name of BLOGGS, and
would look in the STARTED class for a match to FREDDY.BLOGGS, and probably
finds FREDDY.* and uses it.  If you want something different, then either
START BLOGGS or define a STARTED profile FREDDY.BLOGGS.

What you have now, I think, is very close in processing to what you'd get if
you said START FREDDY,JOBNAME=BLOGGS.
