Sorority, to hold fi By CORAN GLUBA Staff writer The USC chapter of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority Inc., members of the NAACP and community professionals will be host to a Sickle Cell Anemia Foundation fund-raiser from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Thursday in front of Russell House. "Sickle cell anemia is a hereditary blood disorder that chiefly affects the black community, but its effects should be made known to the entire community," said Diana Lynch, president of the Beta Gamma chapter of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority. Representatives from the Sickle Cell foundation will be there to distribute information about the disease, and trained professionals will be screening individuals interFormer Ba testifies at By The Associated Press CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) ? Jim Bakker's former personal aide testified Tuesday the PTL founder felt he lived "shabbily" ? yet moved his belongings by private jet and kept his swimming pool heated to 90 degrees. David Taggart, the first witness called when Bakker's trial opened Monday, also said the board of the evangelical empire in 1985 approved borrowing $800,000 for operating expenses while voting Bakker a $200,000 bonus. On cross-examination by the defense, Taggart testified Bakker had repeatedly objected to bonuses and raises approved by the board but always took the money. If convicted of all 24 counts of fraud and conspiracy, Bakker could be sentenced to 120 years in prison and fined $5 million. Bakker quit PTL in 1987 amid revelations about his 1980 sexual encounter with church secretary Jessica Hahn and a $265,000 payoff for her silence. Defense attorney George T. Davis said the Hahn payment was made without Bakker's knowledge, ' but Taggart said Bakker personally approved it. is qra| < INF< Now that clas rC5 D? y? -tM f Ic Wec M K-?

Lynch, who hopes to raise as much money as possible, said "The AKA sorority's main objective is to boost up awareness by having a lot of residents in the community and on campus take part." kker aide fraud trail Miss Hahn is not on the list of witness scheduled to testify. Taggart and his brother James were convicted last month of tax evasion. Each faces 25 years in prison and $1 million in fines at sentencing Sept. 8. James Taggart, who was PTL's interior decorator, also is expected to testify. Prosecutors say Bakker and other executives at the evangelical empire diverted for their own benefit at least $4 million of the $158 million they raised by selling $1,000 "lifetime partnerships" at the ministry's resort hotels. David Taggart testifed Bakker complained during a visit to Oral Roberts University in Tulsa, Okla., just weeks before he resigned that he didn't live as well as other evangelists. 'They were showing us around," Taggart said. "Mr. Bakker said that he lived shabbily compared to Oral Roberts, the (Rex) Humbards and other ministers." Taggart said electric bills at Bakker's lakefront parsonage in Tega Cay, S.C., usually ran about $1,800 to $2,000 a month because "the pool was kept at a very high temperature ... in the 90s." lMBrl J.
