The
Centenary year, 1983, saw a major revision of the awards
system. Five new badges replaced the twenty four awards, and 46
metallic foil stickers (Credits) accompanied them. When a boy
gained two credits in a category, he gained the badge. A further
two credits and he received a red plastic surround and with one
further credit he gained a blue surround.
