When I was growing up, I took piano and my brother took a couple of horn-type instruments and later violin. I do not think my father, Roger, ever once mentioned that he had studied violin.

I think the newspaper has it correctly because surely Billy and Roger were holding the violin bows in their right hands. (I know that Roger, my father, was right-handed. I can't remember about Uncle Bill.)
Here are the two pictures together. See what you think:
