Back when I started in the 19th century, there were hashmarks on the floor. If the team that was trailing started to stall for some strange reason, the official could direct them to make the ball penetrate inside the hashmarks either by dribbling or passing. It was called the "penetration" rule, not to be confused with anything having to do with Britney Spears.
