Bass Bridge Help!

Try pressing a screwdriver against the bass bridge and see how that 
affects the tone.  Is this an apron bridge?  I repaired a Baldwin 
with glue trickled in between the bridge and soundboard and screws 
with washers from the soundboard side into the bridge.  Fairly simple 
and ugly repair for a near-to-dead, hard-beat PSO.
