Hide a column in a matrix

I want to display daily hours for a specific week by RVP and technician.  Based on the hours thus far in the week, I want to project whether the technician is on track to generate OT.  I want to show the daily hours and then the projection; however.  If I add the projection field as one of the values, each date will display with two values - total hours and projected value.  I want hours for the week, then the projection.  The only way to accomplish this, I believe, is to create two matrices (see image).  Is there any way to hide the RVP column of the 2nd matrix?

Yes, turn off Word wrap in column headers and then shrink the column width to nothing.
