As for his suspension from Carlisle, according to Bender, what happened was in 1902 he was sent to Dickinson prep school but remained Captain of the Carlisle Baseball Team. Carlisle had a two week break in the schedule and the Dickinson Captain asked Bender to take a trip with his team, claiming to have cleared it with Carlisle. During this trip Carlisle had a dual track meet with Dickinson and the star sprinter of Dickinson was also the baseball teams pitcher. The pitcher told the captain he was sick and couldn't make it to the baseball game and instead went to the track meet and took 1st place in two races. Carlise found out Bender was with the baseball team and he was "expelled for treachery to the baseball team".
Since no records were documented by Carlisle as to what happened no one really knows what happened but this is what Bender claimed.
