TL;DR

This 1968 APRO Bulletin compiles global UAP sighting reports, including physical injury cases in Ohio and Canada, and provides editorial critiques of contemporary UFO literature and research methodologies.

This issue of the A.P.R.O. Bulletin, dated March-April 1968, serves as a compilation of reports, research updates, and editorial commentary regarding Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAP). The document details several specific incidents, including a report from Beallsville, Ohio, where 12-year-old Gregory Wells sustained second-degree burns after being struck by a red beam of light from a hovering, football-shaped object. Another report covers a 'frozen pond' incident on Vashon Island, Washington, where ice formed on a pond during above-freezing weather following a UAO sighting. The bulletin also provides updates on the ongoing health issues of Steven Michalak, who was injured by an aerial object near Falcon Lake, Canada, in 1967. Beyond incident reports, the bulletin features editorial content criticizing the accuracy of Frank Edwards' book 'Flying Saucers. Serious Business' and the editorial stance of NICAP. It also discusses the use of hypnotic techniques by Dr. Leo Sprinkle in UFO research, specifically regarding the case of Officer Schirmer, and provides technical information on a 'Gaussmeter' UAO detector designed by Rick Gerdes. The publication highlights international UFO research, noting contributions from Soviet scientists and the activities of APRO representatives in South America. The bulletin concludes with administrative notes, including requests for member donations to assist Steven Michalak and information on purchasing UFO photographs and research materials.

At this point the boy became very frightened and started to run but a red beam of light flashed out of the tube and struck Gregory in his right arm by his shoulder and knocked him to the ground.
