52a "Chap getting post needs a moment to open letter" (9)

A?P?I?T?E Looks like could be APPOINTEE for someone getting a post, but if so can't see the parsing

13a "Marks occurring first in large tree" (5) M?P?E

Looks like it should be MAPLE but again don't see the parsing and how marks fit in

Any help much appreciated

13

Large = Ample, move 'M'(Mark) to the front.

52

a Point (moment) in Pee (letter 'p')


Is the best I can do.

Thanks mamya; any ideas on 52a?

P (named pee) is the 16th letter of the modern English alphabet .

Hi!

For the first time in several weeks this is causing me much grief with holes, even after much struggling, all over the place.

I'm hoping assistance with some of these will help :

3D - First runner turning in leg always runs on the inside (11)
??E?I?A??
30A - Aloof answer blocking claim to be twelfth man (10)
?????S?N?
36D - Meeting opposed to jail being used for head of state (11)
??????A????
57A - On transgression, I'm back at church to reflect (9)
??????S??

I entertain some doubts about some of the letters I have provided.

3d Only shows 9 letters

30a Only shows 9 letters

Whoops!

3D should be ??E?I?I?A??

& again
30 A should be ?????S?N??

Double apologies.

30a impersonal (aloof) ?
