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

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.

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."

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."
