Be of benefit (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

avail

'be of benefit' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for avail that I've seen before include "Be of help or advantage" , "(Of no) use or benefit" , "See 3" , "Provide help; profit" , "Medal (informal)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Wall Street Journal.
