Theoretical zero age main sequences (TZAMS) from Flower (1976) are compared with two observed zero age main sequences (ZAMS) in Fig. 1.: ZAMS40, based on a distance of 40 pc (Sandage 1957) and ZAMS46 on a distance of 46 pc (see Flower 1977 for Teff: (B-V): BC scales). Although ZAMS46 lies above any TZAMS, the TZAMS can be shifted in luminosity by changing the chemical composition.
