Rogue River Teacher
Wins Magazine Award
New York For her work
in initiating and carrying out
a "Consumer Buying" pro
gram designed to teach girls
how to use money wisely, An
nette J. Richmire, home econ
omics teacher at Rogue River
High school, Rogue River,
Ore., has been named Seven
teen Magazine's 1963 "Home
making Teacher of the Year."
Miss Richmire lives at 615
N.W. Fourth street, Grants
Pass.
A panel of leading educa
tors selected Miss Richmire's
project from hundreds of en
tries submitted by teachers
from coast to coast. Her cita
tion climaxes the fifth annual
"Seventeen Salute to Home
making Teachers of the Year"
program, designed to empha
size and give recognition to
the importance of High school
homemaking education in
teen-age school, family and
community life.
As her award for her out
standing achievement. Miss
Richmire will be Sevcnteen's
guest at the 1963 American
Home Economics Association
convention this June in Kan
sas City, Missouri, where she
will be honored at a special
reception. ,
Taught Two Years
Miss Richmire's honor
comes in only her second
year of teaching. In her first
year, she created her school's
complete course of study in
home economics, and now is
chairman of a committee to
revise all the home economics
materials in the Jackson
County Materials and Curri
culum center. The award
winning unit is a result of
Miss Richmire's conviction
that "rapid changes in our
modern society have made it
imperative for families to
Past Oracle's Club

the Past Oracle's club of Ash
land were elected at the
March meeting held at the

Mrs. John Scott Hall was
chosen president, Mrs. Bert

retiring president, conducted
a short business meeting and
during the social hour the

Mrs. C. A. Hartwcll will en

choose intelligently and plan
wisely. One of the important
goals of homemaking should
be to educate girls to do so
both as teen-agers and future
homemakers
Miss Richmire began the
project by explaining why it
is important for girls to
understand money manage
ment: women handle most of
the money in the United
States. She then used charts,
films and classroom guests to
stimulate interest in the unit.
Make Field Trip
Students learned how to be
informed consumers through
movies on "Wise Buying" and
"Consumer Protection" and
booklets from the Better
Business bureau and similar
organizations. Together with
the business class, they put
on a 20-minute play called
"Charge Account Magi c."
They made a "field trip" to
a furniture store and were
visited by a department store
clothing buyer and a repre
sentative of a carpeting shop,
As a highlight of the unit,
Miss Richmire's class tested
various kinds of cooking
utensils. They wrote to the
Consumers Union for infor
mation on now to set up a
consumers' testing panel, and
received the material plus a
request that they send their
results to the Union.
The money management
segment was enlivened by vis
its from a life insurance brok
er, automobile and fire insur
ance broker and a stock brok
er. After seeing two movies
on the stock market, students
decided to buy one share of
railroad stock.
The nationally - recognized
program received much ac
claim from parents, too. Said
one mother, "I've learned as
much about consumer buy
ing as my daughter has." Ac
cording to Miss Richmire,
"The students themselves ex
pressed a lively interest in the
unit and felt that they were
more intelligent shoppers
than before taking the unit."
