NEW YORK GIANTS TURNINGREATEST TEAM PLAY OF '33 , By A Urn Gould ' (Associated Press Sports Editor) NEW YORK W Not entirely satisfied with having produced the outstanding athletic performer of 1933 In Carl Owen Hubbell, the New York Giants emerged from the an nual battle of ballots today as the choice of the experts for the greatest team achievement! of the year, in any sport. Newspaper sports editors and writ ers, registering their opinions In the third annual Associated Press sports poll, unhesitatingly nominated and elected Bill Terry's baseball cliam pions to the honor position on the strength or their triumphant tiash to the National league pennant, follow ed by decisive victory over the Wash ington Senators in the world series. This accomplishment, noted most observers, atands out as the foremost of any major league team since the Boston Braves shot to the peak In 1014. The Giants polled 68 votes out of a total or 198 and won handily In this year's contest from their two closest rivals Princeton's all conquering football team and the British Davis cup forces which trounced the United Statu and lifted the famous tennis trophy from France. The Tigers re ceived 43 votes In recognition of their sensational renaissance under the di rection of Fritz Crisler. The tribute to the tennis combination of Fred Perry and Bunny Austin was repre sented by 27 votes. Football naturally covered the widest range of opinion in the bal loting on the subject of outstanding team performers Michigan's Big Ten champions flniuhed fourth In the stonding with 14 votes. Army's fol lowers lost some of their enthusiasm nrter tho Cadets foil victim to Notre Dame's last round-up but there were eight ballots for West Point never theless.
