Abstract: Let $G$ be a group and $H_1$,...,$H_s$ be subgroups of $G$ of indices $d_1$,...,$d_s$ respectively. In 1974, M. Herzog and J. Sch"onheim conjectured that if ${H_{i}alph{a}_i}_{i=1}^{i=s}$, $alph{a}_{i}inG$, is a coset partition of $G$, then $d_1$,..,$d_s$ cannot be distinct. We consider the Herzog-Sch"onheim conjecture for free groups of finite rank and propose a new approach, based on an extension of the Davenport-Rado result for $G=mathbbZ$.
