We discuss observations of He lines at λ 4026 å in two stars in NGC 6752 and three in M 92. M 92 and NGC 6752 are moderate to extreme second parameter clusters. The presence of He lines in stars where diffusion should deplete atmospheric helium may be a clue to the identity of the second parameter. One such candidate which could easily inhibit diffusion is rotation.
