Art. 4 During a free throw when lane spaces may be occupied:
a. Marked lane spaces may be occupied by a maximum of four defensive and two offensive players.
b. The first marked lane spaces (the lane spaces adjacent to the end line) shall be occupied by opponents of the free thrower. No teammate of the free thrower shall occupy either of these marked lane spaces.
c. The second marked lane spaces on each side may be occupied by teammates of the free thrower.
d. The third marked lane spaces may be occupied by opponents of the free thrower.
e. Players shall be permitted to move along and across the lane to occupy a vacant space within the limitations listed in this rule.
f. Not more than one player may occupy any part of a marked lane space.

I haven't compared them but I think the only difference between this set and the current rules is the first spot, below the block, is eliminated. Need to go back further.
Need Mark to get in the attic and look. (Instead of all the excuses why he can't go up there)....
