You cannot do it. You cannot call static methods on instances in Scala. And, in fact, it is considered a bad practice in Java as well, but if that's the interface you have, there's really nothing you can do about it short of building a complete Scala wrapper.
Now, if that code is under your control, then all I can say is: don't do that. And, if you don't trust me, go see what Joshua Bloch has to say about it in Effective Java.
