So I made an extensive literature research on Dr. Pendleton while I was abroad a few years ago. What I found is this: Pendleton was one of the pioneering teachers at UPCA. He did not only teach soil science but he also started soil research in the country (please see "Brief history of soil science in the Philippines" which I posted in this blog). So I believe we can call him the "Father of Philippine Soil Science" and NL Galvez as the "Dean of Filipino Soil Scientists".Victor B.
