Some consequences of internal mixing at the helium core flash have been investigated for low mass, Population II stars. On the basis of the luminosity criterion, it seems unlikely that the internal mixing hypothesis can explain the CH subgiants, though it cannot be ruled out for the CH giants or other chemically peculiar giants. A binary origin for the CH subgiants is proposed.
