...first number on the program was Beethovens Symphony No. 8 in F. sometimes called the "little" symphony. Beethoven was in a quiet Austrian town when he composed it, in one of the dreariest periods of his life. Yet the Symphony contains more of the light and lively element than any of the other eight. The first movement has very little complexity of theme and is comparatively simple in detail. The second movement is the finest of the four though the end is surprising and perhaps disappointing. The minuet movement is certainly disappointing, Berlioz says of it, "somewhat ordinary." The finale...

Its remarks are exceedingly interesting. It views the defeat in a rather gloomy light. We are told that "we were on the whole outplayed," "it was fortunate that a 'fluke' touchdown was not given us." finally we are told that our standard "was not up to that of a decidedly mediocre Yale team" -remarkable, is it not, that the best team Yale ever...
