N GOLFERS READY FOR FINAL MEET Atlanta, Ga., April 5.-U.R) It's get-away day today on the professional golfing circuit and the rest of the field will have its last chance of the season to break up the Byron Nelson- Sammy Snead monopoly in the $10,000 Atlanta Iron lung tour nament. A field of 80 odd pros and amateurs was entered and the early hope of the long-shot fans was Jimmy Demaret, the Texas sailor on navy leave who has been playing in practice rounds as if he had never heard of either Nelson or Snead. Nevertheless, Nelson, the To ledo, O., veteran and Snead, the West Virginian who served a hitch in the navy himself, are the one-two favorites. Nelson is going after his eighth tourna ment victory of the winter sea son and Snead is seeking his sev- enth. Together they have won 13 of the 17 meets that have taken the nation's top pros from Oregon to Georgia. The Revere Copper and Brass Co. which still operates in Can- ton, Mass., was founded by Paul Revere In 1801.
