Cajun-style fiddle players of all ages, including Joel Savoy and Cameron Fontenot of Eunice (above), took to the stage at the Strand Theater for the sixth Annual Battle of the Bows Cajun Fiddle Competition Saturday. This year’s battle will be held in memory of the late Purvis L. Clement (right) of Evangeline, who played the fiddle for over 40 years. Clement was famous for writing the song “Diggy Liggy Lo,” which peaked on the charts in 1961 when the duo Rusty and Doug Kershaw released their version of the tune. See page 2A for more photos from the event.
