ATLANTIC CITY PRESS, SUNDAY, AUGUST 17, 1930 Movement Begun To Hang Historic Bridgeton Bell In New Junior Schoolhouse Piece Cast In 1764 Known As 'Liberty Bell' Bell Tolled When Declaration of Independence Was Announced BRIDGETON. There is some sentiment here to hang the old "Liberty Bell" in the Bridgeton cupola of the new junior grade school that is under construction. The old bell which was made in in 1764 hung in Bridgewater, the belfry of Bridgeton's first courthouse away back in 1776 and on each Independence day after that until 1846 that same bell ran out. The courthouse was razed in that was moved to Fireman's year. hall and in 1854, was placed in the cupola of West Jersey academy, where it hung until that building was purchased by the Bridgeton board of education.
In 1926 first worthwhile recognition was given the old bell when it was displayed in Philadelphia. After the fair there was discussion and sentiment to make the bell an exhibit, but some members of the board objected and it returned the West Jersey belfry where it hung until that structure was razed during the past year. Joseph Powell has taken the lead in the campaign to have the old bell placed in the cupola of the new school and others are following his lead. There appears be considerable sentiment in favor of the plan. The suggestion has been contained in a letter to the board of education and it is expected the will act upon it at their next meeting.
Powell's suggestion came after it was decided to place the bell in a glass case in the corridor of the new school buildin. He objects to burying the bell "in a casket, stiffing its musical tones, which should remind children and all of our citizens of the greatest event in our nation."

Commissioner of Public Safety James Knowles was given authority to have a draft of the proposed ordinance drawn for examination by the commission at their weekly meeting, Friday afternoon.
The commission for the last 15 years have made attempts to adopt such an ordinance, and as Commisisoner Oliver stated at this week's meeting it will no no harm for the present administration to try. Ordinances have been prepared and advertised, but never adopted. The officials have always become "weak kneed" on the day set for the pasasge, it is said, and the city is now operating upon a measure that was enacted by city council more than half a century ago. The present commissioner of public safety, James Knowles, made the suggestion and the other commissioners agreed with him. City Solicitor Miller will prepare the document with the aid of City Engneer Wade.
Dr. Knowles also suggested that it might be well to have a zoning ordinance, but there was not any great amount of enthusiasm for that and it was not embodied in the motion. Mrs. Charles Englehart, of Cumberlan road, appeared at the meeting with a request that, if the Millville Electric Light company will not extend their electric lines to the locality in which she resides, the commssion ad the residents in their desire to allow the Atlantic Cty Electric company to provide them with current. She told the officials that the later company will furnish electric current, if permission is given them to cross over the line into Millvlle.
She was told that she wIl have to place that matter before the public utility commission. This is the third delegation that has made such requests during the last few weeks. The local company will not make extensions into the suburban area unless the prospective customers will post money to cover the cost of the extension. Watts Chance, who has been given instructions to girls and boys at the municipal playground and also life saving instructions to classes at the Unon Lake bathing beach, asked commission to supply and to pay the expense of playground equipment. The commission agreed to pay $20, but Commissioner Oliver feels that greater sums than that cannot be expended at this time.
The suggestion that the city build a swimming pool in the West Side park, made the officials gasp. The cost of such a pool would total thousands and with the tax rate the highest in the history of the city, they agreed there is not a chance of any such undertaking for several years, Honor Pl'ville Miss At Birthday Party PLEASANTVILLE A birthday party was given in honor of Ruth Unsworth at her home, on Greenway avenue, Pleasantville, Thursday.
