Nicholas Orloff met his old friend, Francis K Eastman Wednesday night at the ball given in honor of the dis tinguished screen star and Miss Beverly Bayne at the Hppodrome The two had quite chat between handshakes and intermissions
 Orloff, in his Russian cossack uniform, created as much attraction as any figure at the ball. The ladies especially ad- mred his robust figure and statesman like appearance.
 The Russian Cossack has been in Bir- mingham several days acclimating him. self to the weather and training for his bout with John F'reberg Monday night at the Jefferson. During his stay here he has won many friends by his clean cut appearance and friendly face. He states that he will be in fine shape for the bout, and that he is anxious to please the fans.
 John Freberg has had little chance to show his knowledge of the game here, but he comes we'll recommended He made q good impression here, although handicapped by trying to handle an in- sane grappler.
 Both grapplers have posted a forfeit with Promoter Brown Parks and fans dissatisfied will be refunded their money. The bout should be one of the best ever offered here, as both men are out for blood and have a reputation to protect.

Comstock' canes to the Barons with a fine reputation as a winning hurler. He was with the champion Louisville team last season and was the main- stay of the staff. He has been pitch ing in hard luck all the season, and when a couple of major league clubs sent two young stars to Bill Clymer's aggregation, the veterans were cast adrift.
 He was with the New York Yankees several years ago. He is a big fel- low, and right handed. He will prob ably be a great addition to the weak Baron pitching staff.

Pitcher Ralph Comstock has been purchased by the Birmingham club of the Southern association from the Louisville club of the American as- sociation, according to a wire received last night from Manager Carlton Molesworth from Chattanooga. Com stock will join the Barons in Atlanta, and will probably pitch one of the games against the Crackers.
 The addition of Comstock to the Barons means that one of the present twirlers will be released. Moley re- fused to state last night in his wire who the ax will hit. It is thought, however. that either Karl Black, the lone southpaw, or Arthur Johnson, the elongated right-hander, will be cast adrift

 Johnson has been slow to round into form this season. He was expected to have a brilliant season, but his arm has not responded to his call to twirl winning ball. Black, too, has failed to show expected form. John son has pitched only one good game, while Blacl1ie has accomplished noth- ing better.
 Comstock is with the Louisville club at the present. He left last night to join the Barons. He will not probably pitch before Saturday. He may not join the Barons, however, before Fri day.
