In a recent paper (see [2]), Orrin Frink introduced a method to provide Hausdorff compactifications for Tychonoff or completely regular T1 spaces X. His method utilized the notion of a normal base. A normal base ℒ for the closed sets of a space X is a base which is a disjunctive ring of sets, disjoint members of which may be separated by disjoint complements of members of ℒ.
