Counter Security IQ Tests

The Canadian Counter Intelligence was formed which was, which looked after the field security people and what not, and I was taken to the, transferred to the Counter Intelligence with the idea that I had to take tests. I’d take an IQ tests and, of course, with a memory like I had and what not, I was fortunate in one of the tests that I had to qualify in the Intelligence was, was a room with two people. One turned on the radio or wireless as they called it and the other one gave me a book and then they carried on a conversation off to the side. All of a sudden one fellow grabs the book. The other one shuts the wireless off and says, “Okay, who was the commentator on the wireless? What was his, what was the subject? ” Then, “Who’s the author of the book and what’s the plot of the book? And did you, what was our conversation, the state of our conversation? ” So you’d give him the answers. And you had to have 85 or better. And he says, “No sweat, you’re in!”
