Unable to insert rows into the table

Question

My insert statement below is not correct, when i try run, its encoutering error "table or view does not exist".
Basically what i am doing here is collecting the table name in FOR variable which stores the table name in this variable. This variable, i am using as table. I know this is not the proper way, please let me how can insert the complete table rows with the following code.
DROP TABLE TEMP;
CREATE TABLE TEMP AS SELECT * FROM Comp WHERE 1=2;
DECLARE
     I INTEGER DEFAULT 1;
S VARCHAR2(50);
begin
for C in (select TABLE_NAME INTO S from USER_TABLES where TABLE_NAME like 'CABLE%' and TABLE_NAME NOT like '%OLD' and Num_ROWS > 0 order by TABLE_NAME) loop
INSERT INTO TEMP SELECT * FROM c.TABLE_NAME;
dbms_output.put_line(c.table_name);
end loop;
end;
The above insert statement is not correct. How can i write proper way.
Thanks.
