Photometric and recent spectroscopic studies of the SMC have shown that the differences observed in the SMC clusters and those of our Galaxy could be attibuted to differences in metallicity, star formation rate and/or the Initial Mass Function (IMF) (Humphries, 1983). The studied clusters NGC152 and KRON3 are located at the west side of the bar of the SMC and their adjoining fields represent the halo population of this galaxy.
