Vintage NBA questions

This is for some of the older folks who may remember the old days (the 70s anyway). Watching ESPN the last few days I noticed two things that seemed strange.

1. A 1978 game had three officials but a 1983 game had two officials. Did the NBA go to 3-Person and revert back to 2 officials for a period of time?

2. In the 1978 game, there were non-shooting fouls where they would get one free throw only. I don't remember that rule but I only starting watching basketball in the 80s.
