Evolutionary sequences for stellar configurations between 1 and 1.45 M_&sun; with chemical abundances varying from Z = 0.023 to 0.10 and from X = 0.60 to 0.68 were computed using the Berkeley Stellar Evolution program. The effect of high metal abundances on the structure and evolution of models of 1.25 M_&sun; is studied in detail. It is found that for the compositions under consideration, the presence of a hydrogen-burning convective core is directly determined by the luminosity of the models on the main sequence. No core is present for an age zero main sequence model fainter than M_bol = 4.6 and the maximum age for a model with a core is 4.2 X 10^9 years; this result implies that any cluster with an observed gap is younger than this age.
