Three clusters in the galaxy (47 Tucanae, NGC 2243, and NGC 2158) and the NGC 2209 cluster in the Large Magellanic Cloud were observed. The Fe-CNO-sensitive FE/H (CM) abundance index of the Washington CMT 1T2 system was near that of the DDO system; 47 Tucanae and the old open cluster NGC 2243 are similar to the Fe/H (MT) of -1.2 with a significant increase in the CNO elements. It is concluded that the remote anticenter region may have a population similar to the LMC periphery since the distant anticenter cluster NGC 2158 is the most metal deficient of the intermediate age galactic clusters.
