Nested find cmd
Hi gurus, greetings.

Objective: find in a path directories that are named Logs. In each found Logs dir search for files with .log extension and remove -atime +6. (Note for test/example, rm and -atime is not used).

Issue: If I execute the script without redirecting output to a file, on stdout gives me what I expect to see. Redirecting it to an out put file results in output file having result of last iteration as well as ls -l of the directory where this script resides.

Disclaimer: I know that I am doing something silly here but cannot pin point.

Code:
#! /bin/sh
out=/usr/tmp/ct
 for DIR in `find /opt/sample -type d -name Logs 2>/dev/null`
   do
   echo "****** Dir Name: $DIR ********" > $out
   find $DIR -type f -name "*.log" |xargs ls -l >> $out  #for testing not using rm and -atime and using ls -l
  done
 
cat $out  #for testing

Thank you in advance. I know that I need to do the search and sub searc on iteration basis, have been searching threads here and even used some suggestion but I am failing to correctly construct a do routine.

Any and all help is deeply appreciated.
