Ply (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

exert

'ply' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for exert that I've seen before include "Work very hard" , "Apply (force)" , "Bring quality or influence into play" , "Make a great effort" , "Employ" .)

I've seen this clue in the King Feature Syndicate.
