JOHNNY BENDER MAKING ENVI
ABllS RECORD A8 A COACH.
Pullman Wins Every Gamer-Bender
the 8ta,r In the Seattle-
Spokane Game.
Evldotltly John Bender is Just as
much' liT CKq game qf fopt'baffas ho
ever wasi Hehas coached a team at
Pullman, Washington, that has defeat-
ed everything It has gone up against
this fall without being scored on.
Since the season for his team closed
he has been playing with the Spokane
Athletic Club and has been putting up
the same, wonderful game that made
him famous from one end of the coun
try to tlje. other when he was at Ne
braska. In a game between Spokane
and the Seattle Athletic Club, in which
Bender and Glenn, the old Notre Dam,e
end, wore the bright and pirtlculir
star's.
Glenn won the game -for Spokane,
making a touchdown and kicking a
field goal fronj the 35-yard lino. Bow
lder is ' characterized as the fastest
backfleld, m,an vever turned loose in
Seatls.
We nrigt the fallowing clipping from
a Spokane fcaper concerning bis work:
Bender Js a Wonder.
Spokane sprung the fastest backfleld
that, w.as ever turned Iqosp in Seattle
in the person of Johnnie Bender, the,
old -Nebraska star quarterback, and
this year coach at Pullman; Sweeney
and N.lgsen qf Pullman qnd Newmyer,
who played for awhile last year with
the Seattle Club team.
BQJQder is Jiothlng short of a.'marvel
nrunnlng yith the ball,- Short and
tblocky; he Is as strong as -a moose, and
very hard to bring to.grass even after
"he la tackled,; He shook? pit men like
Frost, Kern and McDonald 'yesterday,
seeming to shrug his shoulders and
wriggle free, but his clothlpg being so
wet made It hard for the big men-to
get a good grip on him. Bender was
b elusive as a bar of soap in a bath
tub. Even after ho was thrown he
Was likely to bounce along for a yard
or two.
Once Coyle fooled the entire Spo-
Uanp team by kicking when he was ex
pected to run with the ball. The oval
rollefarv down the field, almost undor
Spokane's goal posts, with Bender in
hot pursuit. The east end of the field
was a lake, and Bonder simply took a
dive into the water, grabbing the ball
like a spaniel takes a stick. Big Sam
ple squashed down upon him, and little
. Bender, slipped from under the giant
guard, bounded to his feet and had
"started up the field nvlth the ball be-
fore the Seattle men hardly realized
what his intentions were. Even then
it took three men to pin him, down.
8pokane's Back F(eld Fast
That's the vay he acted alL day.
Kern putklcked Newmyer on every ex
change of punts, but Bender,, Sweeney
and Nlssen ran back th'e ball much
better than did the Seattle men, so
Kern's good kicking was. wasted. The
Interference of the Spokane backs,
protected the runners nicely and it
iyas hard ,to break up because It start
ed quickly;, and, hung; together well; s
