The .2C macro in -ms and -mm, both included with DWB 3.1,
produce 2 column output. The Tutorial in the troff
documentation for DWB 3.1 includes a 20-line implementation.
You most assuredly can't use tbl unless you read left-to-right
across columns. I assume you want readers to read all of
column 1 before starting column 2.
