  Page 341, in the chapter on uses of Access Types, shows a simple example
sorting the entries in array Entry_List.  On the next page, Cohen shows
"reducing the amount of data movement by using an array of pointers to
Directory_Entry_Type records in place of the array of Directory_Entry_Type
records:".  So the example on 341 has the Entry_List array and the
modified version drops that to use instead the Entry_Pointer_List array.
