these clues are probably 4 letters but may be 5 or 6

25. Regional win provided by stunted Olympian - starts with G or H
10. Long ago schoolmaster gets gold for second half - starts with B
35. A boring cricketer Hutton is low grade - starts K,L or M ... possibly something to do with LEN (hutton) ??
60. Correct facts failing to start floppy growth - starts U,V,W,X,Y or Z

25 heat or heats?

[Neveracrossword]

10 Beak is an old word for a schoolmaster, but I can't work in the rest of the clue!

[hankir]

Beau? Beak's last two replaced by au.
35. a in len, lean is low grade.

[pomona]

Thank you both
heat looks good then Heath could be the Olympian?

[pomona]

actually it can't be heat cos the following answer is Hair the musical.... back to the drawing board!
Thanks hankir too

[pomona]

...and sorry ... I missed out a word in 35 ... which now makes sense for beak changing to beau... should have read Long ago smart schoolmaster.....

Pomona think what Olympians were and lop off the last letter. I'm stuck on 60 too and would welcome a massive clue.
