Who was Jim L. Stewart?
James L. "Jim" Stewart was an Australian rules footballer who played with North Melbourne in the Victorian Football League.
Stewart could only manage six appearances in his first two league seasons but was a good performer in the reserves, winning the club's reserves "Best and Fairest" in 1939. His efforts that year earned him more regular games in 1940, with 13 games and 10 goals. He then played 16 of North Melbourne's 18 games in 1941 and won their "most consistent player" award.
Before the 1942 season, Stewart fell seriously ill with appendicitis and died on 31 January following an operation at Royal Melbourne Hospital.
