Considering the study of subdwarf kinematics and metallicities by Eggen, Lynden-Bell, and Sandage (1962), UBVRI photometry and normalized ultraviolet excesses are presented for 178 metal-poor stars, 144 of which are contained in the kinematically unbiased list of Bidelman and MacConnell (1973). The Lowell 0.6 m telescope at Cerro Tololo was used, equipped with a single-channel photometer and a Ga-As photomultiplier. The final magnitudes and colors, number of observations, value of delta(U-B)0.6 (if B-V lies between 0.35 and 0.90), B and M class, and published spectral types for these stars are presented; several extremely metal-poor stars are evident. In addition, sixteen nearby visual companions of the stars were measured, and their magnitudes and colors are given.
