The first letter, which is a scarlet N with a gray border, requires 500 points, two bars are the dis- tinctive marks of a second let- ter, which requires 750 points and the third letter, distinguish- ed by a star, 1000 points. Iden- tified by a Viking head, the fourth letter awarded only five times in the history of the school, required a total of l,350 points. OINTS were secured by hik- ing, by being elected squad leader or floor captain, by ap- pointment to the captainship of the first team in any sport or by passing the junior or senior life saving test. For making the first team l00 points were given, 75 points for a second team member and 50 points for the third team.
