korn shell script guidance

Please look over my short comings during this line if questions.

I have multiple lines in a file that look like,

Code:
phycook 618722      1  76 12:15:13 pts/122 70:24 /4js/runtime2.02.10/lib/fglrun-bin initmenu.42r
 phycook 593484      1  65 12:15:18 pts/122 69:22 /4js/runtime2.02.10/lib/fglrun-bin initmenu.42r

I was thinking I could put this in a for loop like so.

Code:
for 1 2 3 4 in $(cat outfile)
do 
echo $4
done

Since there are spaces between each value in each line that would set the value in the first column for line 1 to $1 and would set the value in the 2nd column for line 1 to #2 and so on. Then I could check $4 for a certain value and if true then the next step would be to kill the process which would be in $2.

Please don't laugh. I somehow think I remember doing something like this but can't find the freaking code in another script.

So if I didn't do a good job of explaining above I basically want to take the value in 4th column and if it's above a certain number run a kill against the PID which is the value in column #2.

Thank you for your time.
