ITEM 1. SECURITY AND ISSUER

     This Schedule 13D relates to the Common Stock, no par value (the "Common
Stock"), of Hemacare Corp. (the "Issuer").  The Issuer's principal executive
offices are located at 4954 Van Nuys Boulevard, Sherman Oaks, California 91403.

ITEM 2. IDENTITY AND BACKGROUND

     (a), (b), (c) and (f):  This statement is being filed by (i) Kensington
Capital Management, Inc., an Illinois corporation ("Kensington"), with respect
to shares of the Common Stock of the Issuer beneficially owned by it, and (ii)
Charles R. Schwab, Jr. with respect to shares of the Common Stock of the Issuer
beneficially owned by Mr. Schwab.

     Kensington is an Illinois corporation whose principal business activity is
to act as an investment manager.  Kensington is located at 230 South LaSalle
Street, Suite 688, Chicago, IL 60604-1408.  Mr. Schwab is the controlling and
majority shareholder, president and sole director of Kensington.

     Mr. Schwab is a United States citizen.  His business address is 230 South
LaSalle Street, Suite 688, Chicago, IL 60604-1408.  Mr. Schwab is the president
of Kensington.

     Information with respect to each Reporting Person is given solely by such
Reporting Person, and each claims no responsibility for the accuracy or
completeness of the information supplied by the other Reporting Persons.

     (d) and (e):  During the last five years, none of the Reporting Persons
has been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or
similar misdemeanors) or has been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial
or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such
proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining
future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to,
federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such
laws.

ITEM 3. SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS

     During the period between November 7, 1997 and November 19, 1997,
Kensington, in its capacity as manager of a private investment fund (the
"Fund"), directed the purchase of 137,500 shares of the Common Stock for an
aggregate purchase price of $105,143.75.  On November 11, 1997, the aggregate
purchases equaled 53,000 shares of Common Stock, resulting in an acquisition of
over 1% of the Issuer on such date. The price per share paid by Kensington
ranged between $.75 to $ .8125 per share.  All of such shares were purchased
with the assets of the Fund in open market transactions.

     Mr. Schwab owns 4,000 shares of the Common Stock in an individual
retirement account. In addition, for purposes of this report on Schedule 13D
only, all of the 588,100 shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by
Kensington are attributed also to Mr. Schwab, as the president and majority
shareholder of Kensington.  For all other purposes, Mr. Schwab disclaims
beneficial ownership of the 588,100 shares of Common Stock beneficially owned
by Kensington.


ITEM 4.  PURPOSE OF THE TRANSACTION

     Each of the Reporting Persons acquired the Common Stock for investment 
purposes.

     The Issuer has extended an invitation to Mr. Schwab to fill a temporary
vacancy due to illness on the board of directors of the Issuer beginning in
December 1997.  Mr. Schwab has no plans to acquire a controlling interest in
the Issuer.

B. Shares Acquired by Mr. Schwab


     Mr. Schwab did not acquire any shares in his individual capacity.
However, Mr. Schwab is the president and majority shareholder of Kensington.
Therefore, for purposes of reporting on this Schedule 13D/A only, the shares of
Common Stock beneficially owned by Kensington are being attributed to Mr.
Schwab.  Accordingly, the information set forth above for Kensington is
applicable to Mr. Schwab as well.  For all other purposes, Mr. Schwab disclaims
the beneficial ownership of the 588,100 shares of the Common Stock beneficially
owned by Kensington.

     (d):  Not applicable.

     (e):  Not Applicable.

TO SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER

     Except for the operating agreement with the Fund, pursuant to which
Kensington is the operator and manager of the Fund and is given exclusive
authority to invest the assets of the Fund, there are no contracts,
arrangements, understandings or relationships among the Reporting Persons and
any other person with respect to the Common Stock or any other securities of
the Issuer, including the transfer or voting of the Common Stock or other
securities.
