Eo6'c4zfL'on HE 1952 Stator is dedicated with gratitude to a teacher who has served Corning Free Academy with integrity for twenty-six years. Grace lone Tobey attended local schools and graduated from Syracuse University in 1914, taking graduate work at Cor- nell, Columbia University, Emerson College of Oratory, and the Gloucester School of the Theatre. She has taught in the following high schools: Troy, Pennsylvania, Sea Cliff, New Jersey, Endicott, Corning Northside, and Corning Free Acad- emy. Miss Tobey started teaching English I in Corning Free Academy in September of 1926, and has continued in this capacity throughout her years with us. For many years she directed the annual senior play. ln 1938 she wrote an original play entitled With Hamlet Left Out. This was a delightful comedy. In addition to this play, she has written many interesting poems. During her career Miss Tobey not only aided the com- munity as a whole by her eighteen years service as President of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, but she also encouraged many Corning Free Academy students in their pursuit and appreciation of wild bird life.
