BIGGS, Chief Judge
(dissenting).
In view of Crumady v. The Joachim Hendrik Fisser, 1959, 358 U.S. 423, 79 S.Ct. 445, 3 L.Ed.2d 413, and Waterman Steamship Corp. v. Dugan & McNamara, Inc., 1960, 364 U.S. 421, 81 S.Ct. 200, 5 L.Ed.2d 169, it would seem inevitable that we reappraise our decision in Hagans v. Farrell Lines, Inc., 3 Cir., 1956, 237 F.2d 477. See also Calmar Steamship Corp. v. Nacirema Operating Co., 4 Cir., 1959, 266 F.2d 79. The case at bar is one wherein “the bring into play” doctrine is applicable and Hagans should be overruled. Judgment should be entered in favor of Brasileiro and against Murphy, or a new trial granted.
For these reasons I must dissent from the order denying rehearing en banc.
