Ignition Switch Lock Cylinder Removal?

I have a 1977 Ford F250. I am trying to replace the ignition switch but unsure of how to remove the lock cylinder from the igniton switch. Is a special tool required? Thanks.

After you turn it to acc and insert the paper clip, continue turning left, then pull.
