Roland Garros it wasn’t, but back in 1923 UNMC employees and students could get a little clay-court tennis action just to the west of what is now University Tower Unit Two.
The two courts, one in the direct foreground and the other in the background on the right of screen, sat in the area now occupied by the expanded University Tower and the driveway just north of the Specialty Services Pavilion.
The image above faces south. The brown building in the background was the then-newly constructed Conkling Hall, which housed the College of Nursing and later was replaced by The Lied Transplant Center.
The smokestack in the background can still be seen atop the Central Utility Plant.
