Gordon Jacob Question

One of my students is learning the Scherzo and Trio from the Gordon Jacob Five Pieces for solo clarinet.

I'm stymied by a possible error in the text however. At the top of the second page of that movement (Oxford edition) there is a measure of chromatically ascending minor thirds, continued from the end of the first page. The last note (G) in the measure is written without any accidentals, and if you play it as a G# (previous accidental in the measure) it wrecks the minor third aspect of the run.

Is this an error? Or did Jacob really do that?

And no, I've never learned the pieces myself or heard a recording. Shame, shame...
