Comments on the competition
1.
1st (4 pts) 6 — simple and very elegant
2nd (3 pts) 9 — the best of the hidden clues that used this idea
3rd (2 pts) 13 — not sure about first=one, otherwise good
4th= (1 pt each) 8, 14, 24 ('Means' has a tacked-on look), 37 (would prefer the fact that 'St' and 'Ed' leave different parts of 'most needy' to be signposted), 40 (not sure about 'last of' applying to two words), 49 (the 'o is a bit artificial, despite its use in high circles)
