Hα and HeI D3 lines were observed in five active cool stars over their relatively short rotation periods. Three of the stars (AB Dor, Rstl37B, HD82558) are in the pre main sequence phase (as deduced from their lithium abundances), while two are post main sequence FK Comae type stars (HD32918 and BD-223467) (Vilhu et al., 1991). We present the results of these observations and point out the physical similarity of the Hα and He D3 transitions (Fig.1).
