Hi,

I am trying to write the heading for special points young people in a group would earn if they do things as asked, good deeds, etc. at the discretion of a group leader. How should I word it? It is acceptable to use  quotation marks when the wording is functioning as sort of a heading? I think it makes aesthetically unattrative to use quotation marks in writing headings or titles in newspapers or any recognizable? situations.

Can these do?

A member can earn a star when he is deemed to have done something worthy. Can the title of the list of points be like this?

How should I write the title?

  Star Points OR Good Member Points OR "Star" Points (unattractive??) OR "Good Member" Points (unattractive??)

1. John Doe

2. Jane Doe, etc.

You can use quotes in your heading - it's not unattractive. But it may not be necessary either. Does everyone already understand what these points are? If so, don't use them.

But I'm not really sure I've answered your question.
