The following was provided by the Barbra Landis.

Hi Ted,
Oh yes...Bender is the "other" famous Indian to come out of Carlisle. One of the former library assistants at the historical society where I work was particularly fascinated by Bender and he did some research for a writer who was working on an article. There is a fat file of photocopies, articles from the local Carlisle newspapers as well as from the Indian School newspapers about the great athlete. His sister, Elizabeth taught at Carlisle from 1915-16. She later married Henry Roe Cloud, one of the founders of the Society of American Indian. You probably know all this already.

Here's an abstract from Charles Bender's student file from the National Archives Record Group 75, file 1327, courtesy of Dr. Genevieve Bell (who gave it to me):
