The chemical compositions of HD 2857, 64488, 93329, 105262, HDE 281679, and BD + 20 deg 5009 are determined. Twelve spectrograms characterized by a reciprocal dispersion of 9 A/mm which were obtained on a 6-m telescope are used. The following parameters of seven horizontal branch stars have been found: lg T(e) = 3.90 + or - 0.01, lg g = 2.38 + or 0.05, the concentration of Fe/H = -1.55 + or - 0.12, microturbulence velocity = 2.2 + or - 0.5 km/s, v sin i = 20 + or - 6 km/s, absolute stellar magnitude = 0.08 + or - 0.11, bolometric stellar magnitude = -0.16 + or - 0.10, and lg(R/solar radius) = 0.70 + or - 0.02.
