Just a few to complete for me - any help always appreciated

1a. criminal lines removed from church in short (7) --c-n-c
25a familiar tune from piano room (9) --a-i-u-e (platitude?)
1d more blank pages in diary for reading (6) --s-o-


thanks again

1a Laconic
criminal = con
lines = inside
removed from church = laic

25a Platitude
room = latitude

1d Lesson
more blank = less on

25a confirm P+LATITUDE

. . . . P(iano)
. . . . LATITUDE (room)
