 At last the wrangllng Is all over and the All-New Britain Football team will play the Hartford Giants. Just why managers of the teams in question prolonged the arguments when they knew that they would finally come to terms, is question. Had we not been in on the inside of the affair from the beginning. we would probably have believed with many others that it was the usual stuff being pulled.
 However. when the All-New Bri- tain promoters decided after Mon day night to refuse to have any more dealings with the Giants man. agement and begun to arrange game with the All-Hartfords, 1t took only a short time 10 have Man ager Lacava come down to earth.
 Contracts for the game were signed by both parties last night and the terms therein are agreeable from every point of view. Jack Walsh offered the suggestion of tossing a coin to see where the first game would be played This prob ably would have held up the nego- tiations some more because each side wanted the first game. The coin was spun and Hartford called the turn. That is why New Britain goes 10 Hartford for the first game Sun day.
 The second game i. scheduled 10 be played in this city on Sunday, November 27. If a third game is necessary, a coin will again be tossed to decide where it will be staged.
