Yep, something is loose.  Try pulling on the bass strings by the  bridge and 
look to see where the glue failed.   You will need to  loosen all the bass 
strings (given the age of the piano consider replacing  them).  Take the strings 
off the hitch pins (putting each string loop on a  wire to keep them in 
order).  Then remove and re-glue the bridge, bridge  cap, shelf, or whatever is 
loose.  You might want to screw the parts  together as well.  Then, re-install the 
bass strings and raise to  pitch.  Don't forget to twist the strings to 
tighten the coils.
