...Howard Joseph Morgens, 46, will succeed Neil McElroy, 52, as president of Procter & Gamble when McElroy becomes Secretary of Defense Oct. 1. Mc-Elroy's longtime protégé, St. Louis-born Soapmaker Morgens graduated from Washington University ('31) and Harvard Business School ('33), first went to work as a $150-a-month store-to-store salesman for Procter & Gamble in Kansas City, trying to interest people in soap in a Depression year when many could barely buy food.

His reporting is sometimes ponderous in the Gothic provincial style approved by the late Colonel Bertie Mc-Cormick (who discovered Dubois when he was working oh the Panama Star & Herald), but it is always authoritative and accurate. And among newsmen, Dubois' scorn for censors-and his ingenuity in outwitting them-has made him a legendary figure...
