Hi all. A bit stuck in top left corner.
1ac: Was fond of activists (5) ??D??
1dn: Distinguishing mark (5) ??C?E?
Also, is 22ac SLINGER? If so, why?

1d sucker? A sucker is a mark - i.e. a target for a con man. Don't see "distinguishing", though.

1a). Anagram of word for fond meaning activists
1d) a private seal or distinguishing Mark
22a) end letters of Saul + anagram of 21a) gives you slinger

Cared ( was fond of ) and cadre (group of activists) are anagrams but can't see an anagrind?

Stuck with 3D and 13ac

Have E_P_E_ _ _ for 3D and _N_ _ for 13 ac. Guessing UNIT (for "one") but can't really work out the word play.
