Jack's predecessor (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ike

'jack's predecessor' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for ike that I've seen before include "President Eisenhower's nickname" , "US general who became president, in short" , "Nickname for Dwight Eisenhower" , "Nickname of old US president" , "Former US President (informally)" .)

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