For anyone who cares to try and find it, there was a fictionalised account of this tale in the novel 'To kill the Potemkin', by Mark Joseph (written in 1986). The Scorpion being replaced in the novel by a fictional early US nuclear sub, 'Barracuda'.
Quite entertaining, and reasonably authentic in its portrayal of things like the SOSUS net at that time and cold war operations in the late sixties, it does however, rely on that most favourite of submarine novel cliches, the US sonar operator being the 'best there is'. Mind you, I suppose that was less of a cliche twenty years ago.
You can find it at the link below very cheap (brilliant site by the way for out of print stuff). Not a bad read if you fancy a half decent sub novel for next to nothing:
