9a Such useless pencils make cleaner fuels ????A?E?
1d Score it at 20 across for 4 ????L? (Not sure if it means the clue numbers 20 & 4 - for 20a i have "the two" and for 4d I have "Spenser")
2d Attack Dickens work and suffer in depression ???? / on hard times
If this is "fall" on hard times then this would make 1a ??F?R?S?
and 9a would be ??L?A?E?
Any help thanks
