Jumps (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

leaps

'jumps' is the definition.
('leap' can be a synonym of 'jump')

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for leaps that I've seen before include "Pales (anag.)" , "Makes fast progress - by . . . . . and bounds" , "Jumps or springs suddenly" , "Pales in vaults" , "Jumps or bounds" .)

I've seen this clue in the Penny Press, the Evening Standard, the Sydney Morning Herald, the Universal, the USA Today, the New York Times, The Mirror, the Family Time, The Telegraph and the Newsday.com.
