 An early description of the procedure of having single digits called out, which the performer arranges in descending order to create a free page selection, thus subtly limiting the number of possible pages that can be selected, seems to be in H. G. Cleveland's "Dictionary Test" on p. 59 of //[[http://askalexander.org/display/37664/Linking+Ring/59|The Linking Ring]]//, Vol. 33, No. 8, October 1953. However, since this ranging force was included in Boardé's 1950 //[[http://askalexander.org/display/24784/Mainly+Mental+Volume+Two+Book+Tests/104|Mainly Mental, Volume Two]]//, there has to be an earlier source. An early description of the procedure of having single digits called out, which the performer arranges in descending order to create a free page selection, thus subtly limiting the number of possible pages that can be selected, seems to be in H.
