8 DAILY CHR0NK1E DeKdbSywanom Uundey.Mawary 22, 199 Sosa's ambition soars for '96 Cubs 5 --m I it, and I would like to have my name with his." The players' strike shortened last season. Cubs manager Jim Riggleman said Sosa has matured during the last year. "The thing you have to say about Sammy is that he plays hard and he plays every day," Riggleman said. Sosa recently signed a three-year deal worth $16 million. "I'm going to play as hard as I ever did," Sosa said.

"But now I don't have to worry about security anymore because I'm set for life. It's something I worried about before, but now I don't have to talk about it again. "Now I can just play the game and hopefully stay with the Cubs my whole career. I want to retire here with this team." MESA, Ariz, (AP) Sammy Sosa had his second 30-homer, 30-stolen bases season in three seasons last year. He also collected a major-league leading 13 errors in the Chicago Cubs outfield.

"I'm still young and I make mistakes, but I try hard for the team," Sosa says. "It's a long season, and we all make mistakes. Nobody's perfect" His hustle led him to more total chances 346 than anyone in the National League, except for teammate Brian McRae, who had only three errors in 352 chances. The Cubs right fielder also is setting his sights on Jose Canseco's feat of 40 homers and 40 stolen bases. "I think I can go for 40-40," Sosa said.

"It's a long season, and I think a lot of things are possible. Jose Canseco is the only other one to do NIU Varsity Club hosts Winter Social DcKALB Northern Dlinois University Varsity Club members are encouraged to attend the club's Winter Social on Saturday, Feb. 24 at 5:30 pjn. in The Backcourt of NIU's Chick Evans Field House.
