You need to ask on a forum for this? Just browse the tyres on crc.

I asked the same question last year for the same reason and got recommended Continental Sportcontacts which are 1.3 and have been brilliant. However you need quite a narrow rim to put them on

iirc continental do a 1" slick tyre, as do specialized. But they are both really slick!
For knobblies, scwalbe cx pro comes up as about 1.3" on 717's: just a smidge wider than a proper 700c cx tyre.
