Some good clues, as was to be expected when the letters in the word were so kind. Eventually I decided:
1st (2pts) 33
2nd= (1 pt each) 5 (almost the best but I wasn't sure about 'devised'), 10, 13, 22, 25, 26, 37, 47, 49, 50 (but it isn't a comp. anag.)
12th= (0.5 pts each) 18, 29 (not absolutely sure about made up = artificial = sham), 31, 36, 42, 45
