[1] His only other first-class game was the Whitsuntide match against Essex at Chelmsford in the middle of which the Worcestershire opening batsman Charlie Bull was killed in a car crash and the wicketkeeper Syd Buller was severely injured.
Worcestershire's two innings in the match both came after the tragedy, and were unsurprisingly unsuccessful; Jewell scored 2 and 0, and did not play first-class cricket again.
He appeared for the RAF's cricket team in 1939 in two non-first-class matches against the Royal Navy at Lord's and against the Army at Uxbridge.
[3] Against the Army, he made a duck in the first innings, but in the second he "hit brilliantly" to make an unbeaten 92 "in about an hour", taking his side to victory.
[4][5] Jewell served in the RAF throughout the Second World War, ending with the rank of squadron-leader and being awarded the MBE.
