Harvard won a poor game from the University of Chicago yesterday by a score of 7 to 1. The game was closer than the score indicates, as Chicago several times got men as far as third base and was kept from scoring oftener only by very steady fielding. Stillman struck out thirteen men and allowed only four hits, but he had poor control and gave six bases on balls. With the exception of Reid's two wild throws the fielding was steady and good.
