Three Galactic globular clusters of moderate metallicity, (−0.7 > [Fe/H] > −0.9), have been searched for variable stars. NGC 6388 and NGC 6569 appear to contain RR Lyrae variables as members; NGC 6652 does not. NGC 6388 and NGC 6569 thus appear to have bluer horizontal branches than normally found at their metallicity.
