Paczynski (Acta Astr.; in press (1973)) has presented arguments in support of the idea that rotating main-sequence stars in the mass range 2 to 10 M/ sub sub solar / should show evidence for carbon depletion and nitrogen enrichment in their envelopes. An attempt to test this theory in terms of the relative CN-strength of Kgiant stars tends to support Paczynski's suggestion. (auth)
