THE A.P.R.O. BULLETIN - JULY, 1963

The July 1963 issue of The A.P.R.O. Bulletin, published by the Aerial Phenomena Research Organization (A.P.R.O.) in Tucson, Arizona, serves as a compilation of reports regarding Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAP) and related incidents. The bulletin documents a wide array of sightings occurring between 1957 and 1963, spanning locations such as Canada, the United States, Italy, England, Argentina, and Australia. The reports detail various phenomena, including large, brilliant meteors, saucer-shaped objects, and cigar-shaped craft. A significant portion of the bulletin is dedicated to 'Monitoring and Scanning UFOs,' a recurring column by C. W. Fitch, which explores the correlation between UFO sightings and car-chase incidents, often involving electromagnetic effects, sudden temperature rises, and physical traces. Specific cases highlighted include the 1962 Vancouver baseball game sighting, the 1962 Milan landing report, and the 1960 Pike County, Kentucky, incident involving a burned vehicle and five fatalities. The bulletin also discusses the 'flap' of sightings in Argentina during 1962, noting the involvement of naval intelligence in investigating these events. Throughout the publication, the A.P.R.O. maintains a critical stance, often contrasting witness accounts with official explanations, such as those provided by the Weather Bureau or local authorities, and advocating for further scientific investigation into the nature of these objects. The document emphasizes the organization's dedication to the eventual solution of the mystery of unidentified objects.
