The determination of the elemental composition of the atmospheres of chemically peculiar (CP) stars by spectroscopic analysis of the H-alpha lines is discussed. CP stars are classified into He-strong, He-weak, Hg-Mn, Bp including the Si 4200 A line, Ap, and metallic line stars. The atmospheres of CP stars are slowly rotating and have a magnetic field. The H-alpha profile of the He-weak star HD 90264, a double-line spectroscopic binary, has indicated that the slow rotation is due to a tidal interaction between the stars, a feature which is not probable for CP stars. HD 92064 was found to be a spectral type B5 or B6V from ubvy analysis. H-alpha observations indicate an effective temperature of 17,000 K for both stars, which have similar mass and luminosity. Further studies with coude spectrographs are recommended to determine if HD 90264 is in fact a CP star.
