Halts (5)

Ross

I think it could be either:

stops

stays

'halts' is the definition.
('stop' can be a synonym of 'halt')

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for stops that I've seen before include "Discontinues" , "Prevents" , "Checks" , "Halts" , "Ends" .)

I've seen this clue in the King Feature Syndicate, The Mirror, the Evening Standard and The Star Tribune.
