In man circuits they control the EPROM through _OE and tie _CE to GND 
since that allows you to get away with slower EPROMs. This way the EPROM 
is always aktive and decoding addresses, just the output buffers are 
disabled. So you can hide quite a bit of the access time inside the 
delay for the decoder that selects the EPROM. Downside: higher power 
consumption with the old NMOS types. Doesn't really matter with CMOS.

A simple OR gate (74LS32 for example) will tie _OE and _CE together and 
produce the correct signal for a 2364.
