yum install openoffice.org-base
yum install openoffice.org-calc
yum install openoffice.org-writer

yum install openoffice.org-headless

You also need the last command to be able to run in headless mode. Otherwise you'll be getting:

/usr/lib64/openoffice.org3/program/soffice.bin X11 error: Can't open display:
   Set DISPLAY environment variable, use -display option
   or check permissions of your X-Server
   (See "man X" resp. "man xhost" for details)
