	"ANGRY CROWDS INVADE FLOODED 'TEST' PITCH. "THE prompt action of certain Lancashire cricket officials, especially Harry Makepeace, the County coach, prevented an attempt by a number of indignant ticket-holders to make a personal inspection of the Old Trafford wicket after the umpires, for the second day, postponed the Test match yesterday. A thousand or more people left their seats and surged towards the centre of the field over the boundary lines. There were only a few policemen inside the ground, and the club chairman, Mr. T. A. Higson; the secretary, Captain Howard, and Harry Makepeace, ran in different directions to prevent and eny encroachment upon the turf on which the ordinary spectator is never allowed to walk. A few policeman joined the officials, but it was Harry Makepeace who, in the main, averted an awkward situation. He won the confidence of the crowd by making a personal appeal from which people realised they had no cause for complaint because there was no play. Makepeace moved here and there, chatting to groups of people, explaining that the ground near the wicket was in far worse condition than the turf on which they were standing." - The Sunday Mail, 10 July 1938

Obituary
"MAKEPEACE DIES, 71 "Harry Makepeace, former Lancashire and England cricketer and English soccer international, died to-day at his home at Bebington, Cheshire, aged 71. He played for England against Australia t Melbourne in 1921 and between 1906 and 1012 played for England four times at soccer. As an Everton player he appeared in five semi-finals and two English Cup finals." - The Evening News, Friday, 19 December 1952. "HARRY MAKEPEACE DIES By Ranger "Harry Makepeace, former Lancashire and England cricketer and Everton and England footballer, died early to-day at his home, 47 Poulton Road, Bebington. He was 71. He was taken ill only a week ago with thrombosis. He leaves a widow and one son, who is employed in a Wallesey branch of Martins Bank. His death removes one of the finest sportsmen it has been my good fortune to know. The name of Harry Makepeace was always synonymous with the highest standards of skill and clean sportsmanship at both football and cricket. He will be sadly missed by all who enjoyed his acquaintance, and nowhere more than at Lancashire's headquarters. Old Trafford and Aigburth will not seem the same in future without Harry's genial presence, ready smile, and outspoken comments, which, if sometimes a little caustic, always had the sting removed by the twinkle in his eye as he made them. Although a Yorkshireman by birth, for he was born at Middlesbrough, Makepeace was a good and loyal Lancastrian by adoption. He came to Liverpool when a boy of ten, learned his cricket and football with Merseyside junior clubs, served Everton well for eleven seasons, played for Lancashire from 1906 to 1930, and later gave invaluable service to the county as coach and general adviser. After attending Queen's Road School, in Liverpool, Harry soon made his name known by his cricketing performances with the Clubmoor, Stanley and Wavertree clubs. His first century was against St. Helens when he was in his 'teens. In the winter he turned to football with the same success and was signed by Everton  in 1901 after assisting Liverpool Schoolboys for some seasons. He began as a forward but quickly developed into one of the finest right half backs of his day, being first capped in this position for England against Scotland in 1906. He played for England on four occasions at a time when 'caps' were not as easy of achievement as they are to-day. His starting wage with Everton was 10s a week—'I thought it was a princely sum then,' he used to say—and in his eleven seasons he figured in five semi-finals and two finals. He played right half in the Everton side which defeated Newcastle United in the 1906 final, and in the same position in the Goodison team which lost to Sheffield Wednesday a year later. He was also honoured by the Football League. After his active football days were over he had a spell as Everton coach, and later assisted Marine in a similar capacity. During all his years as a county cricketer he was never once dropped, his only absences being due to injury or illness. As an opening batsman his value to the County was tremendous. Few could play a better or more patient defensive game when such was called for, but he could hit out with the best when runs were urgently required. His steady batmanship laid the foundation of countless Lancashire victories, and frequently eased the task of those lower in the order. In his younger days he was quite the useful slow bowler, and a fast and reliable outfielder. Later he specialised at cover point with distinction. Throughout his first-class career, he played 693 innings for Lancashire, scoring  25,244 runs for an average of 36·42. His total of centuries was 44, and his highest score 203 not out against Worcester in 1923. He never played in a Test match in this country, but scored 117 for England against Australia in the fourth test of the 1920-21 tour. One of the greatest professional cricketers ever to wear the badge of Lancashire, Makepeace endeared himself to all who came in contact with him in many other ways, and particularly by his modest bearing, his genial character, and his ever-ready willingness to help all the young and aspiring men who came under his care. After his retirement as a player, he took over the job of coach to Lancashire, a position he held until a year ago. Hundreds of young players passed through his hands, all of whom emerged the better for his helpful advice and painstaking coaching. The debt many owe to him in this respect cannot be estimated. Even after his retirement he continued to help the club whenever possible. The last time I saw him was at Aigburth this summer, where he was in good health and high spirits. During recent years he had twice been in hospital for operations, but was soon out and about again, and seemingly none the worse. Nigel Howard, Lancashire's captain, said: 'He taught me all my cricket, coaching me from prep. school to Test captaincy.' Washbrook spoke of Makepeace not only as a coach, but as a father to the young players." - The Liverpool Echo, Friday, 19 December 1952. "LANCASHIRE WILL MISS HARRY By Charles Bray "OLD TRAFFORD will not be quite the same without the familiar little figure of Harry Makepeace with his sun-tanned face and the faded Lancashire cap whether it was a Test match or a county game. He died at his home in Bebington, Cheshire, yesterday, at the age of 71, and cricket has lost a great personality. Because he retained his connection with first-class cricket as coach to the Lancashire county club until last September, it is apt to be forgotten that he was also a first-class Soccer player. He played for England against Scotland in 1906 and 1910 and against Wales and Scotland in 1912. His international appearances at cricket were confined to the 1920-21 tour of Australia. He scored a century in the Fourth Test at Melbourne. For Lancashire from 1906 until 1930 this dour little batsman scored 25,745 runs for an average of 36.15 including 43 centuries. His two best seasons were 1923 and 1926, when he made over 2,000 runs each season. Many subsequent Lancashire players owed much to his kindly advice and his sympathetic handling. As Cyril Washbrook so rightly said yesterday: 'Harry was not only a coach, but a father to all young players.'" - The Daily Herald, Saturday, 20 December 1952.
