'turns' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I can't tell whether it can be defined by this definition.

'round and ejects a sailor' is the wordplay.
'round' becomes 'about' (I've seen this before).
'and' says to put letters next to each other.
'ejects a sailor' becomes 'puts' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'about' put after 'puts' is 'PUTS ABOUT'.
