I don't see why this needs to be iterative: the computations could be done
in parallel.  But via a for loop  you could use

for(i in 1:122) {
    nm <- paste("L", i, sep="")
    assign(nm, log(get(nm))
}

You would do better, I think, to have 122 similar data items in a list.

datalist <- lapply(1:122, function(x) get(paste("L", x, sep="")))

Then you could just do

logdatalist <- lapply(datalist, log)

and so on.
