Declares openly (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

'declares openly' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for avows that I've seen before include "Affirms as true" , "Swears" , "Declares solemnly" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times and the Penny Press.
