Hmm My speller also doesn't see anything wrong with either of these.
Maybe they both are legitimate in the eyes of the dictionary tables.
Google finds this:
/TusCon/, the annual Tucson area Science Fiction and Fantasy Convention.

Here's a better version:

"Tuscon" isn't in the English (UK) dictionary, and I doubt it is in
the English (USA) one either. So if it is not being marked as wrong
by the spelling checker (and if I understand you correctly), it is
likely that you have either added it to one of the dictionaries -
probably "standard" - or else to the Ignore All list. You merely
have to correct that.
o Go to Tools | Options... | Language Settings | Writing Aids.
o Under "User-defined dictionaries", click on IgnoreAllList or each
of the dictionaries, as required.
o In each case, click Edit... and look for the rogue entry for
"Tuscon".
o When you find it, select it and click Delete.
No need to go "outside [Writer]".
I trust this helps (more).

Hi All
Well I tried:
Tucson -> OK
Tuscon -> OK
tucson -> Spelling check
tuscon -> Spelling check
It would appear the the capital 'T' makes it OK? Maybe it thinks it's a
name?
It is a little weird.
Hope this sheds some light for someone
