That's by redefining the thebibliography environment, i.e. the  
command \thebibliography from chicago.sty. I've not studied it (I'm  
not using chicago.sty), but generally I redefine thebibliography as  
follows, to turn it into an environment taking the bibliography  
section name as its argument (replacing \refname) and producing  
unnumbered references, in a slightly smaller font (at \footnotesize):

\renewenvironment{thebibliography}[1]
   {\subsection*{\centering\normalfont\footnotesize\MakeUppercase{#1}}
    \footnotesize
    \begin{list}{}{\setlength{\leftmargin}{\bibindent}
                   \setlength{\itemindent}{-\leftmargin}
                   \setlength{\itemsep}{0pt}
                   \setlength{\parsep}{\smallskipamount}
                   \usecounter{enumiv}\renewcommand{\theenumiv}{}}
    \sloppy\clubpenalty=4000\widowpenalty=4000\frenchspacing}
   {\end{list}}
