1978rif. 237231978. Lowriding exhibition program from June 9 to 11 1978 documenting the emergence of the first national gathering devoted entirely to lowrider culture at the moment when customized automobiles had become one of the most recognizable forms of Chicano public expression in the American West. Organized at the Santa Clara County Fairgrounds in San Jose only months after the debut of Low Rider magazine the event brought together car clubs custom builders hydraulic specialists painters upholsterers musicians and spectators from across California Arizona and neighboring states. More than an automotive exhibition the program records a community built around craftsmanship neighborhood identity cruising traditions family participation and small businesses that developed alongside the Chicano movement during the 1970s. The 1st National Low Rider Car Hopping Championships and Low Rider Show. San Jose California: Moreno Concessions & Moreno Productions in association with Low Rider Magazine June 9 to 11 1978. First edition. Quarto. 36 pages. Photographically illustrated stapled wrappers. Extensively illustrated throughout with black and white photographs and a two page color spread of customized vehicles. The official program opens with a history of lowriding and its expansion from neighborhood cruising into organized exhibitions noting participation by clubs from Los Angeles San Jose Phoenix Bakersfield Sacramento and throughout the Southwest. A detailed schedule of events includes hydraulic hopping championships custom car judging awards presentations mariachi performances disco dancing live DJs Jimmy the Memory Maker and José Chavez disco dance demonstrations by the L.A. Hustle Disco Dance Company hairstyling exhibitions and evening social events. Other features document custom automobiles bicycles clubs and participants including an illustrated essay titled "Bike On" asking "What do you do if you're 12 years old can't drive but dig low and custom rides" The advertising section preserves a cross section of the commercial infrastructure surrounding the movement including custom shops hydraulic specialists upholstery businesses automotive services and local enterprises serving Northern California's lowrider community. Appearing only six months after the founding of Low Rider Magazine this program captures the publication's first effort to transform a rapidly expanding readership into a national public gathering. The essays reject contemporary stereotypes that reduced lowriding to delinquency or spectacle instead presenting it as skilled craftsmanship requiring bodywork paint upholstery hydraulics engineering and sustained club participation. The combination of bilingual language neighborhood organizations family oriented programming bicycle customization and hundreds of privately built automobiles demonstrates how lowriding functioned as both artistic practice and cultural identity within Chicano communities during the late 1970s. The program also preserves the commercial ecosystem that sustained the movement recording businesses clubs and builders whose work rarely survives in institutional archives outside ephemeral publications such as this one.

The National Defense Research Committee NDRC was an organization created "to coordinate supervise and conduct scientific research on the problems underlying the development production and use of mechanisms and devices of warfare" in the United States from June 27 1940 until June 28 1941. Most of its work was done with the strictest secrecy and it began research of what would become some of the most important technology during World War II including radar and the atomic bomb. It was superseded by the Office of Scientific Research and Development in 1941 and reduced to merely an advisory organization until it was eventually terminated during 1947. The Yellow Coach Manufacturing Company informally Yellow Coach was an early manufacturer of passenger buses in the United States. Between 1923 and 1943 Yellow Coach built transit buses electric-powered trolley buses and parlor coaches. Founded in Chicago in 1923 by John D. Hertz as a subsidiary of his Yellow Cab Company the company was renamed "Yellow Truck and Coach Manufacturing Company" in 1925 when General Motors GM purchased a majority stake. After GM completely acquired the company in 1943 it was merged with GM's truck division to form the GM Truck & Coach Division. The car rental subsidiary known both as Hertz Drivurself Corp. and Yellow Drive-It-Yourself was purchased back by John Hertz in 1953 through The Omnibus Corporation and floated the following year as The Hertz Corporation. Yellow Truck & Coach division was selected to produce the 2-1/2-ton CCKW 6-cylinder 6x6 truck without a doubt one of the two most important vehicles of the war and numerically the most important. In addition to its use by US Forces the CCKW was supplied under Lend-Lease to Canada Britain and Free France. Available in two wheelbases the standard CCKW cargo truck was the most popular other variants included a water tanker gasoline tanker machine shop bomb transporter radio truck dump truck tippable cargo body and fire truck. Most memorable was the amphibious DUKW variant of which 2000 examples were built by Yellow Coach. Designed to make the transition from ship to shore more tolerable innumerable uses were discovered and they remain the only World-War II era vehicle in regular use today. Tour operators continue to operate the 60 year-old-vehicles on a daily basis. The hard work of Yellow Truck & Coaches' employees during the War was honored by an Army-Navy "E" award on June 2 1944. The Army-Navy Award for Excellence in War Production was typically normally awarded when a firm completed a large order for the US War effort or filled an order in a short period of time. At the ceremony the employees would be given an enameled pin mounted on a card certifying their contribution to the war effort with a message from the president. The employer would be presented with an “E’ flag and banner and outstanding employees would be presented with a special certificate. Yellow Truck and Coach Manufacturing Company paperback
