54 San Diego (anag. of Goan dies) ?
Are you sure about 9 letters.
53 Ivy (Benson) + League (about three miles)
51 Bing Crosby (anag. Sobbing cry)
Question Author
Thank you for your replies and answers.
Yes Re 51 I did realise Bing Crosby was an anagram but it is 10 letters, that was why I thought Perry Como.

No 50 Clue is Girl at Greek city in Maryland. my answer is Annapolis which is 9 letters. IS THIS CORRECT?
No 52 is 9 letters [Hollywood I think] and the obvious answer to 53 is 8 letters

Any comments or thoughts?
I think all those answers are correct. Originally I only thought "Polk" was out of order, but subsequently I believe there are a handful of others also.
Ann a polis looks good
The obvious answer to 53 is exactly what Fibonacci put. I can't think of an obvious answer with 8 letters, and the clue says 9 anyway.
I am pretty sure Ivy League (9 letters) is correct
54 though, San Diego is only 8 letters and not in order
If its any consolation I have a few out of order with the number of letters at least some of which would seem to be correct.

Thanks for all your comments and I tend to agree with them, but I am surprised that so many in one area are out of order. I think no 47 is another assuming St Helen's is the correct answer, or is there another solution?

I am also baffled by No 28 - Could be G.W. in Florida. I am assuming GW is Bush but not getting anything. Am I on the wrong track?
Yes - you are on the wrong track -- think music for G and direction for W - if that doesn't help I think its been asked elsewhere on this site
Question Author
Thank you very much for the hints to No28, I now understand the clue.
I am still dubious about the out of orders.

is there a better, or different answer to St. Helen's for No47?
