Sauguet (1901-1989) was a French composer whose music always followed logical lines of development, but nonetheless kept to a strict tonality. (This was due to the sometimes-obnoxious influence of Erik Satie). If there is an influence in Sauguet's writing, it comes from Milhaud. All of his symphonies have it, and it's not a bad thing to have. In his Symphony 3 (of 1955), Sauguet exhibits a kind of post-war athleticism, the opening theme distinct and engaging. His Symphony 4 (of 1971) deftly avoids elements of post-modernism and becomes a fully mature work of poise and sobriety (which he also got from Milhaud).
