Butch,to be quite honest(in my 45 years), I can't ever remember there ever being an interpretation about held balls that involved any specified time period at all. As far as I know, it was always up to the individual official's judgement as to whether a player could do, or not do, something with the ball.
Of course, I've been wrong before too.

Well, I could have an incorrect memory, and since I've got 13 years on you it's possible that my brain cells are messed up completely. On the other hand, my recollection of the 1 second interpretation dates back to 1960-61 in France when I played HS club ball while my father was in the Foreign Service there.
