I don't know what the rule was then, either, but when I was a senior in high school (1977) the home team put their wrong numbers in the book and we started the game by shooting 5 technical foul free throws. Was each T only one shot then? Also, our coach wanted a non-starter to check in to shoot the free throws, but this was not allowed.
