Until now there have been few spectroscopic studies of cepheids in globular clusters. In this preliminary report we present sample spectra of the stars Vl and V29 in ω Cen. Eventually, we hope to use the abundance patterns, masses, and period changes of cepheids to better understand post-horizontal branch evolution in globular clusters.
